Hello,
I am French excuse my English �
I am just beginning to use Revolution 1.1, and I am willing to import an
hypercard group of stacks and I am in a surprising situation.
1) I tried to find the documentation about the "Script Debug Mode". It seems
there is nothing to help for the use of this basic tool.
2) Step by step I tried to find how it is working. It took a long time with
a lot of curious messages which are very difficult to understand and to
stop. Until now I am very far to understand the use of the different
buttons and how the debug tool works.
3) I stop to work with the hypercard stacks and tried to understand how the
debug tool is working inside the most simple stack;
a) I built two stacks:
- the first stack whose name is "Depart" has one card and one field (whose
name is fld1) on the card. I wrote one word in the field, applied the link
style to it and locked the field.
- Inside fld1 I wrote the following script:
on mouseUp
start using stack "bibli"
get the stacksInUse
fpclick
end mouseUp
- the second stack whose name is "Bibli" is just used to store the fpclick
custom command like in a library.
b) fpclick is as follow:
on fpclick
get the clickText
put it into message
show message
end fpclick
4) I open the the two stacks "Depart" and "bibli", click on the "link word"
of "Depart" and obtain the word in the message box. It is works�
5) Now I open the Debug tool, I choose the "fld 1", see the script of fld1
in the window of the debug tool, click "on mouseUp", it becomes red.
Leaving the debug toolopen,
- I click on the "link word" of "Depart", then I click one time on the
button "step Into",
the debug line move to start using stack "bibli",
- I click once more,
the debug line move to get the stacksInUse, I see variable it with the name
of the stack "bibli" (until there it works, "bibli" is in use,
- I click twice and enter into script of "Fclick",
- I continue to click and arrive on line get the clickText and there is
nothing in the varable it �.
The stack which is working well don't work when I use the debug tool.
What is wrong ?
Could I obtain help on the use of the debug tool ?
Why there is no documentation on the use of the debug tool ?
