As a pattern of a graphic, I don’t think so. Even scaling the graphic does not
shrink or alter the position of the pattern.
Why are you using a graphic instead of just an image? I think you can mask an
image, so it should be possible to only show through what you want.

The message box is not a container. It’s a stack. A stack that tracks global
properties, global variables, pending messages and stacks in use actively. It
stands to reason then that it has to be either in the message path somehow. I’m
not sure how that affects things, but I have noticed while

I have seen this sort of thing before with the wait command. Very frustrating.
Apparently Livecode is not *strictly* single threaded.

Your code contains a smart quote and an em dash. This works:

local t1,t2,t3
-- this gets the current time and puts it into UTC format, i.e
-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD
put word 5 to 6 of the internet date into t3 -- we are interested in the
time and time zone

I believe so. In my custom tabbed object group, I had to put transparent
buttons over the tabs, then have a way to size and rearrange the buttons to
match the size of the tabs, just so I could get it to respond to mouse messages
and drag/drop operations. It's so ugly it's cute. Like a shar-pei.
The segmented control is fairly limited. Most of the widgets are. The

the ones outside an acceptable tolerance. You may reject some good data here
and there, but something grossly outside tolerance should be pretty
Just read for 10,000 lines and check for empty each time.

Last time I plotted an equation while bifurcating, I was pretty drunk, and
don't remember much.
