Re: Message path question
All works as you predicted Richard. I looked at the User Guide diagram and your excellent write up on the message path before posting this question but the availability of back scripts and libraries to other back scripts wasn't immediately obvious in either place so thanks for the enlightenment.

It should. What happens when you try it? Also, if I pass the message in my handler, will it be seen by other loaded libraries with a handler for it?

Re: Message path question
Peter Haworth wrote: Prowling around the IDE scripts, the revBackScript button of the revLibrary stack includes: dispatch revHookPostSaveStack to me . ... but there is no such handler in its script. My understanding of the message path is that since this is in a back script, the only other place for that message to go is to the engine. Is that right? All backscript and library handlers are available to all other backscripts and libraries. The only time their specific order comes into play is when dealing with handlers of the same name in two different scripts. In that case, libraries are checked first, and then backscripts, in the order in which they were inserted into the message path. Additionally, dispatch has an unusual characteristic that's not likely at play here, but worth knowing about: if a custom message sent with dispatch isn't handled, you won't get a handler not found error as you would with send. Instead, the local var it will simply contain unhandled. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World LiveCode training and consulting: http://www.fourthworld.com Webzine for LiveCode developers: http://www.LiveCodeJournal.com Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/FourthWorldSys ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

FYI, the dispatch command in question has to me in it. I hope that's the case since I'd rather not start adding scripts to the IDE stacks.

Re: Message path question working with iPhone Control Kit
Ahh, part of the mystery is solved. For each group representing the control, there is a behavior reference in the property inspector. This behavior reference points to the button id of the BehaviourButton on the (Behaviors) card of the iPhone Control Kit stack. This explains the message path. Unfortunately, it does not explain why this one control is not receiving the message even though the reference linkage looks correct.

Although the problem I am chasing is with the scroller, how are the MouseUp messages being routed to the buttons on the (Behaviors) card? There are no MouseUp handlers in most the controls on the MainCard of the iPhone Control Kit card, or in the MainCard script. The scroller is an exception and it looks like it doing normal work. There are not even any MouseUp handlers in the stack script of iPhone Control Kit itself. How are the MouseUp message routed to these controls? I am clearly missing something.

Re: Message path question working with iPhone Control Kit
Making a duplicate of the BehaviourButton of the of the slider control on the (Behaviors) card of the iPhone Control Kit stack and reassigning the behaviour reference to the new button ID seems to have solved the problem.

Hi, I'd say either next to or right before the engine. You could consider them part of the engine.
