Bonjour Paul,
Not sure to have understood well your problem but:
I just made a new main stack "stackMain" and a substack of it named "bar"
On stack "stackMain" a button with the following handler :
on mouseUp
modal stack "bar"
end mouseUp
On the substack "bar", I put a field "foo" with several lines of text
setting the lockText to true and listBehavior to true.
the script of the field "foo" is :
on selectionChanged
global gLineNum,
------
put the hilitedLine of me into gLineNum
end selectionChanged
The script of the substack "bar" is :
on openStack
global gLineNum,
------
if gLineNum > 1 then
set the hilitedLine of fld "foo" to gLineNum
else
set the hilitedLine of fld "foo" to 0
end if
end openStack
And on the substack a button which allow to close it :
on mouseUp
close stack "bar"
end mouseUp
select a line in field "foo",
close the substack "
reopen it : the hilitedLIne of field "foo" is as expected
Does that help ?
Best regards from Grenoble
André
