Interesting idea -- just a different color, or what would the useful interface look like?
Also, I honestly don't remember what I did for the double-click in instances like that. I remember that if an object has a behavior I open the behavior, but if the behavior has a behavior I'm not sure. Any suggestions for the interface for that? Glad to hear Navigator is useful. gc On Tue, Jan 4, 2022 at 11:46 AM chipsm themartinz.com via use-livecode < [email protected]> wrote: > Hi Geoff, > I use Navigator on all of my projects. > I like the ideas that you are proposing. > I would like one more item: I am a believer of using behaviors.
