Jim:
Thanks so much for the handler, but 1) it would not compile as written,
and 2) after I managed to get it to compile (probably by butchering it),
it did nothing useful. I tried words like "image" and "icon" and only
managed to get a number written into a file.
If you had the time, I would appreciate it if you could make the code
work. After an hour or so of fiddling, I know I can't. Sigh.
All I'm trying to do is to move Scott's shiny numbered balls [sic] into
the current set of code I'm running for the Nine Ball stack. Should be
simple, right?

I'm still fiddling with the Nine Ball With Spin game. I want to modify
the ball images, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do
that. I figured out where the images were, in a "graphic", but can't
figure out any way to actually see the image, save it modify it, load
it, etc.
Any hints? The property Inspector seems useless in this situation,
which seems strange.

Jon,
I'm not the best person to answer this question but try the following:
on mouseUP
ask "What image to save?"
if it is empty then exit mouseUp
put it into theImageToSave
ask file "Give it what file name? (Don't forget the suffix.)"
if it is empty then exit mouseUp
put it into fileName
if it is not empty then
put "binFile:"&fileName into theLongFileName
else
exit mouseUp
end if
put image theImageToSave into url theLongFileName
end mouseUP
In theImageToSave be sure to include the suffix, e.g. ".png"
This handler should put a file on disk which you can edit in
PhotoShop/Elements or whatever.
It might be nice if Run Rev included an "Export" menu option to go
with the "Import" menu option.
Somehow the numbers of the ball got lost in some of the iterations of
Nine Ball.
You will find Nine Ball using Scott's shiny balls *with* attached
numbers on my web site:
