Re: AnimationEngine pending messages
Hey Tom, Should be adding an aeCancelAllAEMessages command? Sounds like something that could be useful… Cheers, Malte -- derbrill IT-service Malte Pfaff-Brill Tanneneck 2, d-24790 Ostenfeld Tel: +49 4331-337 640 0 eMail: i...@derbrill.de web: http://www.derbrill.de Steuernummer: 28 015 03865 VAT ID: DE223571286 ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
Re: AnimationEngine pending messages
Malte, All I can say is that when I was working on this project it seemed to be a natural thing to look for. Every time I would go to a new card the same scripts would run and animate image 1 but If I went to the next card before the current card animation was done it would then build up on top of the new cards animation of image 1. So when I specifically targeted the name of image 1 (which was different on each card) then it no longer built up. In this case it would have been a no brainer that when I wanted to skip quickly through the cards that I could clear the messages from the previous cards animation sequence.

Re: AnimationEngine pending messages
I'd give it a try with the code as in the docs (under cancel) repeat until the pendingMessages is empty cancel item 1 of line 1 of the pendingMessages end repeat It might just be that you catch additional timed messages that have triggered while you are inside your loop. What the heck - do that code twice :-) -- delete all outstanding messages repeat until the pendingMessages is empty cancel item 1 of line 1 of the pendingMessages end repeat -- and do it again just for luck repeat until the pendingMessages is empty cancel item 1 of line 1 of the pendingMessages end repeat -- Alex.

Re: AnimationEngine pending messages
May not make a difference, but have you already tried: repeat for each line x in the pendingMessages I'm asking only because I haven't seen message canceling done by putting the messages in a variable first.

Scott... like on cancelThisMsg tMsg put the pendingmessages into tPendingMsgs IF tMsg is in tPendingMsgs then repeat for each line x in tPendingMsgs if tMsg is in x then cancel item 1 of x end repeat end if end cancelThisMsg from the notes in the dictionary..:-) Subject: Re: AnimationEngine pending messages From: sc...@tactilemedia.com Date: Fri, 24 May 2013 10:05:49 -0700 To: use-livecode@lists.runrev.com May not make a difference, but have you already tried: repeat for each line x in the pendingMessages I'm asking only because I haven't seen message canceling done by putting the messages in a variable first.

Re: AnimationEngine pending messages
Actually, I did see the note in the dictionary and tried that. But I think since I was using AE to generate effects using image 1 that each card was somehow newly stacking commands for image 1 of each card. When I changed it to the name of image 1 then they no longer stacked for each card. Weird. So in the end I avoided having to cancel the pending messages. Still don't know exactly what was happening and how but I'm good now.
