Re: "within graphic" question
If you're willing to do something "hackish", you could do this: on mouseDown lock screen show grc "mygraphic" put within(grc "mygraphic",the clickloc) hide grc "mygraphic" unlock screen end mouseDown :D Ken > On Feb 22, 2021, at 1:49 PM, jbv via use-livecode > wrote: > > Hi list, > > I have a graphic made of a list of points.

My solution will only work on a graphic that is a rectangle.

Re: "within graphic" question
Would it work in your case if you left the graphic visible and set the blendLevel to 99? be well, randy > On Feb 22, 2021, at 2:14 PM, Richard Gaskin via use-livecode > wrote: > > jbv wrote: >> I have a graphic made of a list of points.

"within graphic" question
Hi list, I have a graphic made of a list of points. This graphic is opaque and invisible, its filled property is set to true (according to the doc). In my card script I have something like : on mousedown put within(grc "mygraphic", the clickloc) end mousedown but it always returns false, even when I click inside the clickable area of the graphic... What am I missing ?
