I do the following: 1. Command - period sometimes works. Interesting that it sometimes brings me to a secured front script that belongs to Scott Rossi's themes. 2. Click the desktop and back sometimes feels like it works 3. Wait about 2 minutes for it to come back 4. Remember that you save after every line of code and just force quit to get back to work I have noticed this behavior since version 5 came out. Many have seen this elusive behavior. It is difficult to make a recipe for this though.

OK, now I just got it after saving, removing from memory, and reloading . . . and it looks like the system, load spiked (red on mac) for a bit too, before it went all green (user) I can watch the spiked load pass from core to core, though. If the debugger is to be trusted (and it shouldn't have launched!), it is in a "ck", which is a trivial function that puts its argument after a field in a stack for me to watch (created because there is no messagebox in the standalones, and to give me a longer list). The next line is a breakpoint. It hasn't just gone away; it's just plain hung.

Re: just where does livecode go when the ide takes a minute or two off?
Yeah sounds like recursion to me. It depends on how fast each cycle in the recursion is. If there are tasks that take a long time inside the loop, it may take a very long time. Also, I have seen errors in one of the UI elements that stopped execution, but left the IDE in some kind of unstable state, but it was something I was doing I think, or a plugin I was using.

I'll try that next time. Sometimes there is a full cpu load when this happens, and sometimes not. If I have a recursion or similar problem, it sends a message, doesn't it?

Re: just where does livecode go when the ide takes a minute or two off?
hmmm... What version of LC? And have you tried removing all your plugins to another folder temporarily then restarting LC to see if it helps? Also, when this happens, try holding down the escape key. I've had issues where something has hung in one of the IDE stacks. That will usually free it up.

just where does livecode go when the ide takes a minute or two off?
Sometimes when I've sent something into a loop, but othertimes just working in the editor, the ide locks up for what appears to be a minute or two. What is going on here? Does the IDE belong to a union or some such? :) -- The Hawkins Law Firm Richard E. Hawkins, Esq. (702) 508-8462 hawkinslawf...@gmail.com 3025 S.
