Hi Peter,
Apparently, the selectedObjects are parsed as objects rather than a
string. The solution is to put parentheses around the selectedObjects.
This parses it as a string.

I guess it's my week for running into LC oddities, here's the latest.
Open any stack and select 1 or more controls on it.
In the message box:
put the selectedObjects
You'll see the long ids of the controls you selected, one per line. So far
so good. Now in the message box :
put the number of lines in the selectedObjects
You'll get zero no matter how many controls are selected.
I can get round this in a script by putting the selectedObjects into a
variable, then the number of lines in the variable returns the correct
result.
Is this a bug or just some strange side effect of how the selectedObjects
is implemented?
