New control messages are sent when a control is cloned, no? Well, we already have messages sent when a control is cloned. If they are not sent under some conditions the docs should say so. Keeping the messages limited to the object class seems merely efficient to me: imagine how many thousands of "new" messages would get sent if a "new" message was sent for every sub-object and you cloned a large stack. OK, I'll back off. One of the uses of a newGroup message is to register the group in some db. Some alternate method would be needed. This is not (yet) important to me. Another use is to put a badge on card 1 of the stack if there is not one. By this I mean a background that has an openStack handler to set up somethings for all groups of a certain kind. This does not need to be done if a card is cloned or a stack is cloned. So, this is OK. Dar ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

For special cases where you might want that it's easy enough to get an equivalent result: on newCard repeat with i = 1 to the number of controls InitObject the long ID of control i end repeat end newCard on InitObject pObj -- do your initialization here end InitObject -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Media Corporation ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.FourthWorld.com ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Re: copying a graphic doesn't trigger a new graphic message
I see what was happening. Copying an entire card at once does not trigger the individual new graphic messages for each graphic control on the card. But if the graphics are copied one-by-one the new graphic message is triggered. doug On 3/18/04 10:29 AM, "Doug Lerner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > If I create a new graphic manually in a card the new graphic message is > sent.

copying a graphic doesn't trigger a new graphic message
If I create a new graphic manually in a card the new graphic message is sent. But if I copy a graphic from one card to another it doesn't seem as though the message is sent. Is this normal? doug ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
