Tom,

setProp and Getprop work great. Just follow some rules about custom props:

don't name your custom property or setProp handler to the exact name of an existing object property. Ever.

Your pTest works because it is unique. Since a good part of Rev is a database itself, and all the keys are words, one need to watch out for this.

Rev no likeee one using 'visible' for a property name. Or 'Name'. or 'End'
same rule should apply to variables. use one's own prefixes and suffixes to differentiate. If your user needs to name custom props via dialog, make sure these names are not used. There's a rev call to get all the handler names.

set it to tVisible or MyVisible or ShmengieVisible, just not visible.

also... 'get the visible of stack x' doesn't work for you?

mmmm...

and I thought I had it all figured out...

Is there a way to use SETPROP to interact on setting properties like hiding a window?

I tried setting 2 properties :
        ON mouseUp
            put empty into fld "Status1"
            put empty into fld "Status2"
            set the visible of stack "HideThis" to true
            set the pTest of stack "HideThis" to "Here I Am"
        END mouseUp

The stack "HideThis" contains the following scripts:
        SETPROP visible newValue
            put newValue into fld "Status1"
        END visible

        SETPROP pTest newValue
            put newValue into fld "Status2"
        END pTest

After hiding and showing the stack, field "Status1" remains empty while field "Status2" has got the text "Here I Am"

And I really need to know when a stack is visible, I am working on an app that is being used by another program that only can write files to a harddisk or launch a program. At first I was thinking to read the "in-file" every-time my app was launched, but this takes to long. Now I want to read the "in-file" every-time my app is re-launched but I'm stuck...

Any help is welcome :-)


Warm regards,

Ton Kuypers
