Hello all, I am trying to create a "MIAW factory" for want of a better word. I am reasonable with lingo but still grasping the parent/child & oop thing. This is mostly for my own knowledge but I'm trying to make tools for future projects. What I am doing is using a behaviour (attached to button) to pass MIAW attributes to a manager (movie script) which then calls a parent script that creates a new window, deletes it from the windowlist and adds it to the actorlist, this is all working fine and can also be called from the opened window by using a tell the stage. What I need to do is have the window know itself, so it can tell the manager to call close/destroy in that object.This is where it's all coming unstuck :( I just don't know how to have the MIAW's know itself. BTW I remove it from the windowlist to avoid the problems with forgetting a window I have had some success in creating a global proplist when first creating the object [symbol(the filename):the object address]then passing the MIAW filename to get its address, but this just seems clunky. Is this a practical way to go about this, or am I just heading in a seriously wrong direction here? alternate or similiar suggestions/examples are SO welcome. D8 WIN I am on digest so I may be a bit slow to respond.
