Just a little more info for those that are interested. In general, it is extremely frustrating having to recreate a solution to a problem which has clearly been solved already many times. I can list several iOS apps which I use personally that appear to give reasonably accurate measures of

I am switching between the forum discussion about this and here. The plain old wait command, (without "with messages") works fine when the target field is on another stack. So it not the fact that the field is not "local". There is something about the message box itself, ostensibly just a stack,

"Send in time". Hmmm So the line "put start" is actually delayed until after the wait command, er, starts, and gets stuck there? And if one uses "wait with messages" that stuck command can worm its way out and back into play? So then LC knows when the message box is about to be the target,

I vaguely remember long time, many moons, this came up. The upshot of the conversation is that because the message box is a stack file in it’s own right, certain features would only work this way, or it would interfere with other things if it didn’t work this way. I dunno, it was all all so

Yes, I had my part of the code handy from my custom error handling. But at the time it seemed to me the tool was for edge cases where one might encounter raw error data with no UI. It never occurred to me to ship an application without error handling, and back then I'd never used LC's so I

Sorry, I meant execution errors. You're supposed to read my mind. I keep telling my husband that but he doesn't always get it either. ;) I've used the built-in error reporting mechanism in the past and it worked well; I usually choose the email option and it works on both deaktop and mobile.
