Here is the recipe to reproduce the problem: - Take or create any type of object - type into the message box: "move btn x to anywhere" - just write "anywhere", this being an example of an undefined empty variable - the object - in this case the button - moves in topleft direction and vanishes to anywhere and assumes a position of about -4000,-4000 (can reach -13000,13000, I don't know why) - typing "set the loc of btn 1 to 300,300" does *not* bring back the button. You have to exit Rev/Metacard and restart the stack, then "set the loc..." works. - But "move btn 1 to 300,300" works, although you will have to wait for a while (depending on the speed of your cpu), so its better to add "in 1 second". - Likewise, after you have first typed "move...." into the message box and then type "set the loc of...." this seems to work, too. This is apparently some bug in the Metacard engine, Regards, Wilhelm Sanke _______________________________________________ improve-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/improve-revolution
