I have solved all my serious problems with my stack. It's miraculous. It

great.

Even after a few years, that "wow" factor is still with me. It really is a wonder.


I  do need to know why my visual effects have disappeared. I'd like them
back, but they're not essential. Wipe right.... etc.

A common mistake is to put the visual effect in quotes. HyperCard required it; Revolution forbids it. Take out any quotation marks you may have around visual effects, even if they are more than one word.


Also in converting my HC stack, my button COPY TO CLIPBOARD that used to
copy the contents of a field to the clipboard doesn't work and and I still
don't have a way to print that same field.

Use "the clipboardData" or the clipboardData["text"] to put text into the clipboard (text is the default, so you don't need to specify the array element in this one case.) You can put other kinds of things into the clipboard by specifying the element, for example:


put img "myPicture" into the clipboardData["image"]

See the docs about "clipboardData" for more.

See "revPrintField" for printing the contents of a field.

Thanks for your help. I'm nearly there after just five sittings!
