Nothing too mysterious - "handler".

Hi,
Kurt, their is a new "handlers" function in d8 which should help you do this
more efficiently. Just try executing this line in one of your objects and
see what you get:
put me.handlers()
Makes it very easy to interrogate any object as to what handlers it has
available.

Another of many ways to do this is to use sprite 1, spanning the whole
movie, as your to

kevin,
While this certainly works, I wouldn't do that fo
of course those properties would still have to be declared, and that
can't happen on the fly. However, you're right, in some ways it's better
to have a generic get/set into which you can send both the property and
the value, instead of separate ones for each prop.

Hello,
Is having this kind of set up in your Object O.K.
on settheProp me, theProp, theVal
me[theProp] = theVal
end
on broadcastProp me, theProp
return me[theProp]
end
settheProp #newProp, 42 -- creates and assigns a new property with the instance
settheProp #existingProp, 42 -- assi

No improvement on Mark's answer is necessary, so I'll leave it there.

There is a way, but it may or may not work in your situation.
Hi Jon
>From a "purist" view, you should never access or set the property of another
object without using a get/set function call. If you break from a "purist"
standpoint on the access you stand the chance that your code will completely
blow apart if someone is stupid and changes the name of a pr
