Re: Object layers

And again. I really could not count the number of times over the years that the good people of this list have dug me out of a LiveCode hole, usually (but not always) of my own making. I literally could not use LiveCode now without knowing the list is there as the first-aid line. One cannot

Re: Object layers

Hello Christer. This list is a community. It is friendly, helpful, and there is a certain amount of chat. When that chat becomes excessive, I do ask members to curtail it, however nothing in this thread in any way contravenes the spirit of this list. You were offered some helpful advice.

Re: Object layers

Just to respond. Thank you for the advices - very helpful. However, experiences with the early versions (say V5-V7) made me avoid the grouping functionality. Maybe because I could not manage the concept too well. So I have given it up and manage it (as do with scaling etc) with additional

Re: Object layers

Jacque. I do receive them as emails, but the text is not well formed, and the thread is not preserved. So I go to babble to get the context and timing. It would all be fine if we signed our names. Craig -- Sent from:

Re: Object layers

It works if you receive the list in email, only the nabble archives do that (and maybe some others.) The last person to post is assigned to all posts in the archive. It can change minute to minute. Also, when replying to the list from an email client you may need to adjust your reply

Re: Object layers

Re: Object layers
