Thanks, Rob. The message watcher shows only a mouseMove being generated either upon gliding over linked text, or upon moving off it. However, the following mouseLeave handler changes the background color of the linked text upon moving off of it. Which makes me confused, since I don't see the

Hi Mark, what message (besides mouseMove) is sent to Revolution when the hovering mouse moves off a chunk of linked text? I don't know the answer; but if you open the Message Watcher window from the Development menu and perform the mouse action, you can see all resulting messages. Rob Cozens CC

Mark, Custom props are good since they stick with the object. If you have one main field then the custom prop would go in it and then later if you brought that field into another stack the custom prop would go with it. Franks idea is another way too. Store the list of words as a set of items on
