Re: Groups id #
There is an anomaly with the “last” keyword. It is not reliable with groups.

Re: Groups id #
As I said, the last ID is going to be the stack ID -1.

Re: Groups id #
IDs are assigned according to the stack ID which increments by 1 every time an object is created. So yes, the stack ID is like an auto increment column in SQL. It assures that no two objects get the same ID, and the last object created is the highest ID in the stack.

Groups id #
Hi list, I have a script that creates groups on the fly with the command "group". These groups contain various flds and imgs. Can I always assume that the group with the highest id # is the last one created ?
