I have no idea what you are facing with such a basic issue. To be sure, please,
somewhere in the stack you are having the issue, make a button and a field and
run this:
on mouseup
lock screen —comment out for the first run
repeat 3
put random(999) into fld 1
wait 20
end repeat
end

AHA. I did, but did not see past the fact that the “$” keyword took parameters.

In a new stack I placed a button with this:
on mouseUp
beep 2
end mouseUp
If I click on the button I hear two clicks. I disabled the button and clicked
on it. I enabled the button. No clicks. I did this all by hand. Did you?

Having a more complete description seems right to me. You are essentially
saying that if you use the moniker “the currentCard” that LC should know what
you are intending, the is, the current “card”, and not the current “something
else”.
It has to be one of those cases where, as Danny
Bob,
If you remove the “numeric” the result is “2,3,4,6,a”.
To me this implies that ASCII values are used as the sortKey. But that begs the
issue why, as in your post, with “numeric” included, the “a” appears first.
What makes the “a” a lower "numeric" value than “2”?

My example was only to show that the sort command still maintains the ability
to accept concatenated sort criteria. This allows a single line of code to do
the work, and obviates the need for multiple sorts. In that sense it was a bad
example to use character "places" in a string.

I assume you have a blueprint of what will become a stack with at least one

I think that Bob S. is correct. The change in focus is sort of built into the

Oh yes, the point of this thread. To me it seems that preOpenCard is sent

Somehow that last was mixed up with the concept of any number being able to be
expressed by a string of prime factors. So 77 can be resolved to ’11” and ”7”.
“42” by “7’, “3” and”2’.

As Mark said…
So if you have, say, 22, which is divisible by the prime “11”, then it is also
divisible by 7""???

"Every ten lines"???
Is your handler using a loop to massage each of those lines? If so update the
scrollbar every 10 passes through.
So if you are using “repeat with…” you can do something like:
repeat with y = 1 to whatever
if y mod 10 = 0 then updateYourThingie
And if you are using
Jacque.
Why aren’t you on the forum?
Cant you just loop through each line in your handlers, and find the ones that
contain “lock screen”, both with and without the visual effect thing. Search
downstream until you find the “unlock” line, That gives you the start and
finish lines for each
Nope

No messages are sent while a menu is open. Further, a “mouseMove” handler in,
say, the card script stops receiving messages while that menu is open.
Such a gadget, likely drawn by the underlying OS, seems to be blocking. So, I
think, no.

All.
"Enter" has always worked for me. And focus has always been required to be in
the SE for it to do so.
This seems logical to me. It would not do for actions specific to certain
spaces to be affected, or effected, when not in that space.

The script only stack behavior not only should be set before the standalone is
built, it must not reside in the executable.

Hi.
On a new card make a field and a pulldown menu button. Place a few lines of
text in the field and lock it. In the field script:
on mouseUp
set the loc of btn 1 to the mouseloc
click at the mouseLoc
end mouseUp
The menu opens at the line clicked on.
This has been discussed extensively
Something weird happened to my post.
I modified your handler to access only those stacks that appear when calling
the function “the stacks”. In all those cases, the return time was only a few
tenths of a second.
But “revNaviigator” does not appear on that list. So there must be a longer
Geoff.
I get over 5 seconds for the “revNavigatior”
So I modified your handler just a bit, to only a
But “revNaviigator” does not appear on that list. So there must be a longer
pathway for LC to find a stack that certainly must be in memory, but that does
not appear in the “stacks” list?

Hi.
I am missing something. Make a popup menu button. Ina mouseUp handler in
another button:
on mouseUp
click at the loc of btn 1
end mouseUp
Once the menu is open, the up and down arrow keys navigate among the menuItems.
