Does "lock messages" help here? I don’t know if it works for widgets? If so you could do this:
Lock messages set the highlight of me to not the highlight of me unlock messages Ralph DiMola IT Director Evergreen Information Services rdim...@evergreeninfo.net -----Original Message----- From: use-livecode [mailto:use-livecode-boun...@lists.runrev.com] On Behalf Of Graham Samuel via use-livecode Sent: Tuesday, April 21, 2020 3:24 PM To: How to use LiveCode Cc: Graham Samuel Subject: Re: Issues with Mobile Native controls 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. Graham PS This widget has a property ‘highlight’ and a message ‘hiliteChanged’. I think the spelling should be consistent. > On 21 Apr 2020, at 19:04, J.
