Hi
I've noticed that when a modal is dismissed, if there is an editable
field on the lower window, immediately under the clicked button in
the modal window, the cursor remains as the "I" beam until you move
the cursor out of the window and back in again. From memory (getting
worse), I think a short wait after the modal command (wait 6 ticks)
solves the problem. I don't know if this is related to your problem,
but you might try putting a short wait after the "answer" line and
see what happens.
Yes, I know, Scott. I should have bug-reported this. Sorry! :)
