The point is, my handler wasn't working unless the card was the current
card. ALL copied images were created with the same ID of 0, which caused
problem because I am creating a number of them.
Your simple stack works, because you are only creating one image and are
not using the variable "it" to manipulate the copied image.
I am creating 15-20+ images on the "hidden" card. It worked to a point,
but then produced weird and unexpected results.
In stepping through the code, I saw that after a "copy image..." the
variable "it" contained "image id 0 of card..." (i.e., an invalid ID
number), whereas when I run the same script with that card as the current
card, "it" contained "image id #### of card...", (i.e., a valid image
ID). Since all the copied images were being created with an ID of zero on
the 'hidden" card, renaming them and referencing them does not reliably work.
What I am doing is generating a Mystery Phrase screen, like hang man.
I am placing empty boxes where there are letters, blanks where there are
spaces, and displaying non-letter characters, like punctuation.
For example, if the phrase was "Lexington, Kentucky" I was getting:
_________
, , , , , , , , , ,
Instead of
_________,
________
For some reason, changing the file name of the last image on the first row
to my comma.png was causing all subsequent images to be the comma, rather
than the blank image (and causing my comma image to disappear). This is
evidently due to all the creating images having an ID of 0.
If I run the exact same script after having gone to the card, the images
are all created with unique IDs and the second result is produced.
I was not able to find your KALA.rev stack to test it out.

SO . . . I have just 'run up' a really very trite
demonstration stack which is available from the RRGraphix
Group:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RRgraphix/files/
called REMOTE DECORATING.rev
HOWEVER, if you really want to see 'remote control' in its
full, mid-blowing potential then download my Master's
degree stack (KALA.rev) via:
http://members.maclaunch.com/richmond/files.html
I should warn you that this is a prototype GUI for absolute
no-nothing-about-computer types to author their own
educational software: there is no 'desktop', no 'menubar',
no 'start menu', no KDE panel and, in fact not much else -
but it will create you a few rather basic educational
stacks by remote control.
sincerely, Richmond Mathewson
