Re: Scripting systemWindow

2010-03-02 Thread Mark Schonewille

Hi Andrew,

What have you found where in the forums? Do you have a link?

One possibility here is that the stack that this stack refers to  
changes when the systemWindow property is set.


Is the button with your script part of the stack that becomes a system  
window?


It is possible that there is a bug in the debugger, which prevents the  
answer dialog from showing up. Try writing a header plus the error  
data to a file.


Once you have the error message, you can parse it at 
http://runrev.info/error.html

 end if

I have this little guy to allow me to pin a stack on top of  
everything.


It won't work, it seems like it throws an error because it brings  
tRev up to
this chunk of code; however, I cannot get this error to display at  
all. I
searched through the forums and found that someone else had tried  
almost the
exact same code I did, but on MAC and got a bug. This was in 2006,  
so surely

we can script systemWindow in windows 7 now.

anyone else have trouble with this or have another snippet for pinning
stacks on top?


Thanks!
Andrew

Yes, the button belongs to the stack that is executing it. I had originally
given it the path to the stack with the same results.

And, I am kind a noob to rev here. Can you elaborate on the process to do
what you request? Also, I will try it with the regular Rev editor later
instead of tRev to see if I get a different message or response.


Thanks,
Andrew

I figured out what you meant, and no error message is being output and the
script editor is not doing anything now. However, the above statement has no
effect on the systemWindow property of the stack.

I just tried it and it works fine here, on both Mac OS X and Windows XP. 
I used this:


on mouseUp
set the systemwindow of this stack to not the systemwindow of this stack
end mouseUp

On Windows the window dims if it isn't in focus but it still floats.

J. Landman Gay's snippet works. How is it so different pragmatically from
what I did? Hmm weird.

Thanks!

I looked at your script. I am not sure what sSystemWindow is. But using NOT 
to toggle a logical value is really what you are looking for.

Hi Andrew,

Just a wild guess, did you perhaps forget to make sSystemWindow a  
local or global variable?

doh, that explains why after fixing it, the button would always toggle
false.

Re: Scripting systemWindow

2010-03-02 Thread Bob Sneidar
Heh heh. Been there, done that. I think that's why setting the property to 
*NOT* the property is a better way to go. Less moving parts. 

I think of properties as variables that remain persistent and are global by 
nature. Obviously they are a different kind of animal, as anyone on this list 
will be quick to point out, but from a programmatical point of view it serves 
me well. 

One other advantage to accessing a property directly is I can tell any time I 
want what is in the property. With Variables, I have to be running a script, 
either in a script or in the message box. 

That bit of wisdom and $2.40 will get you a venti brew with 5 shots of your 
favorite syrup at your local Starbucks.
