Hi. Still annoyed at having to answer in the use-list as opposed to the Forum.
I made a new stack with a button an a field. In the button script: on mouseUp hide fld 1 put "fld 1" into lFieldRef put “dissolve" into tEffect put "show "&lFieldRef&" with visual effect ""e&tEffect"e into tDo do tDo end mouseUp Works just fine. Why go through all the “do” stuff? Why not just: show fld 1 with visual effect dissolve Craig > On Jan 27, 2022, at 9:12 PM, William Prothero via use-livecode > <use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > > put "show "&lFieldRef&" with visual effect ""e&tEffect"e into tDo > > --wait for 1 second with messages > > wait 500 milliseconds with messages > > do tDo _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
