Hi Klaus, the only wrong thing with this are the main syntax-lines in dictionary's entry for "name". These should read
get the [long | abbr[ev[iated] | short] name of object set the name of object to "shortName" But the description is clear: "get the name of obj" yields the *abbrev* name of obj "set name of obj to var" sets var as *short* name of obj You can't set an 'attributed' name. The only case that would make sense is to "set the short name". But this is already done by "set the name". And you are, as I read often in the forum, the grandmaster of LC with "say it short" ... -:) Hermann _______________________________________________ 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
