Hmm, maybe the VW/MW/EC dialog menu items should just be moved from there into the debug menu? I'd vote for that.

copying packages in OSX
Has anyone been able to successfully copy an OSX package with MetaCard scripting (no Applescript). I am close. I get all of the files (the package list, contents folder, icons, etc), and I even get the .app icon...but something is still not right. I can open the list in the list editor, and everything looks right, and I can view the icons as well. Double-clicking the application icon starts it up, but it never finishes (doesn't crash though). When I compare the file sizes (original and copy) I see no difference, but going back to OS9, and using ResEdit, I do notice that some of my files have garbage in the 'Creator' (the 'Type' is empty). In the 'good' file, these are supposed to be empty...changing this and saving the file does not work of course. Any info is appreciated, JR ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard
Re: copying packages in OSX
Just a thought without seeing your scripts: are you using "binfile:" URLs to reference the files? If not, you may not be copying them as binary, but rather as text.

Re: copying packages in OSX
JR, Why are you trying to copy an OS X package? Perhaps there is a better way to accomplish what you're trying to do...

RE: Getting a files icon...
Great Trick but it comes with a challenge! Can anyone make it work??? Make a stack with a scrollbar control in it. resize the stack to it's the same size as the scrollbar. Make a button, style Dropdown Set the stackmenu of the button in the props of the button to the name of the stack with the scrollbar click on the menu button... Cool... Make the scrollbar work! good luck! Xavier ___ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard
