Dar - thanks for your response. After a little more poking around I've
discovered this bug only shows up when you get the alphaData of [a
referenced image] which has been reduced in size. I'm going to play
around with it a little more and then I'll make a bug report.
Thanks,

Larry,
Look at ‘send … in 8 seconds’ . Also look at playing messages, and also other
things related to send: ‘cancel’ and ‘pendingMessages’.
I think we can give a short example, if it will help.
Think on what you want the second click to do. Restart the sounds? Be ignored
if during sounds?

Hi Larry:
This is probably a situation where wait with messages will not work. If
you want to cancel sound 2 independently of sound 1, the second sound
needs to have its own play message so it can be canceled separately. This
is why I originally suggested the possibility of using a loop script
