Richard,

You may have not doubted my code, but I did! Rev was not the culprit here, it was my code that triggered an untimely exit from the editBackground state which in turned triggered the reselection and delete of the group.

In any case: problem diagnosed, fixed, tested and ready for users to download via GLX2 Help menu.

Thanks to Mark Swindell and others for their report and for Sarah for her help with the code and alerting me to the anomaly in the first place. I was busy doing project work when Sarah let me know we had a "bogey" comin' in at 2 o'clock.

Best,

Jerry,

I never doubted your code for a second. On the contrary, my question was why does the *Rev IDE* do all the extra twists and turns with the delete when the engine's native behavior is just fine as it is?


1. It turns out that after deleting an object in a group, Rev switches to non-editbackground mode and reselects the group. 2. At that point a secondary delete key message is sent and the entire group is deleted UNLESS some code intervenes and stops it!
