A useful nugget -- if you need to get the current card of a stack that
is not the frontmost stack, use the undocumented term
"currentcard" (note lack of space character) -- as in:
put the currentcard of stack "myStack" into cc
which gets you something like:
card id 1002

"Currentcard" is equivalent to "this card" but works with any open
stack, returning the id of the card that is currently showing in that
stack. In your case this is unnecessary, as you are apparently needing
to deal only with the one stack, so "this card" will do fine.

currentCard vs this card (was Re: 2 quick questions)

2010-06-16 Thread Hugh Senior
Correct syntax would have to be:
  put the name of cd (the currentcard of stack "Home")

'the currentCard' and 'this card' are not the same and not
interchangeable...

  put the name of this cd of stack "Home" = card "Home card 1"
  put the currentCard of stack "Home" = Home card 1

therefore
  put the name of cd the currentCard of stack "Home" = card "Home card 1"

/H



I just tried this. It doesn't work.

put the name of the currentcard of stack "License Maker"
--> Message execution error:
--> Error description: Chunk: can't find card

"Current card" does, but "currentcard" doesn't. As far as I know
current and this are interchangeable.

I suspect he just wants to know where he is in the stack, rather than 
exactly which content card he's on. So even if the cards get shuffled, 
he'd still want to know he was on card 3, regardless of which particular

If the target field is definitely on all the cards then you'd just need

Re: 2 quick questions

I think maybe "put the long name of this card" or "put the long id of  
this card" would suit you better because it is absolute.

Mark,

put the number of this  cd
put the number of the current cd
put the number of this cd of stack "Foo"
put the number of the current cd of stack "Foo"

I think there is a FAQ on the RunRev homepage but probably it isn't
what you're looking for. I'd be happy to host a FAQ on runrev.info if
we (the list) can agree on what should be included in such a FAQ.

Re: 2 quick questions

2010-06-15 Thread Terry Judd
Mark - put the following handler in the stack script

on preopencard
  if there is a fld "cardNumberField" then
put the number of this cd into fld "cardNumberField"
  end if
end preopencard

If the target field is definitely on all the cards then you'd just need

on preopencard
  put the number of this cd into fld "cardNumberField"
end preopencard

HTH,

Terry...

RE: 2 quick questions

2010-06-15 Thread Mark Smith
Thanks Mark. Am I allowed to continue asking dumb questions (always the best 
sort for a FAQ since then you can just point the annoying offender to the FAQ 
:-)

Is there any reason for choosing "this" over the "the current" or is just 
personal preference?

Regards,

Mark Smith
