Yes, it was the “native” one.
I caused the error which I saw by creating an infinite loop. I did not realise
that the ‘hiliteChanged’ message is sent after the graphic representation of
the switch has been changed within the widget itself, so I scripted:
on hiliteChanged
set the highlight of me to not the highlight of me
end hiliteChanged
By doing that I generated another hiliteChanged message, and so an infinitum.
It was slightly less obvious than it might have been because the test started
on a card with a button scripted"
go cd “testCard”
which was supposed to show the card with the switch on it. This doesn’t happen
in this case - the screen freezes before the ‘go’ is actioned, so it looks like
we never left the first card.
It was Elanor at LiveCode who explained that to me. I am somewhat embarrassed,
but it may help someone else to know what I did wrong.

PS This widget has a property ‘highlight’ and a message ‘hiliteChanged’. I
think the spelling should be consistent.
