This is a similar question to that of Tiemo (why does lock screen doesn't locks the screen? (Tiemo Hollmann TB)) about finding colours under other objects (controls) but that thread evolved so fast in a single Digest I may appear a bit late. Thus the hijacked thread title.
The following handler detects the colour onto which a dragged object is dropped by moving it and getting the mouseColor but. Although it could be interpreted as a settling wobble, I would prefer not to see the little movement . This works correctly, as is, but if I uncomment the lines 'lockScreen' and 'unlockScreen' then the whole handler is stopped. I've tried moving the commented lines around and using 'set lock screen' but the result is always the same, suggestions please. ----------------------- Global gCurrBall on Rollit --lockScreen move gCurrBall relative 20,-20 --These movements should not be seen by user- get the mouseColor put it into tColour move gCurrBall relative -20,20 --unlockScreen if tColour is 0,0,0 then Dropit else exit to top end Rollit on Dropit.......... --------------------------- Using Windows XPHome, Rev vs 3.5 / 4.0 Best to all Barry Barber _______________________________________________ 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
