I tested this:
1) create script only stack with this script (this works if run from a button
on the card and a direct reference to the field name)
command centerTextVertically
put the formattedheight of me into tTotalTextHeight
put ( the height of me - tTotalTextHeight ) / 2 into tTopBottomMargins
end centerTextVertically
2) save that script only stack as "sv_field-behaviors.livecodescript"
3) go to a field --> set behavior --> choose stack --> I see that stack
"sv_field-behaviors" available.
4) set the behavior of the field to that stack
First Puzzle:
In the message box I run
"centerTextVertically"
Nothing happens: the text in the field doesn't move (should get a new top
margin)
Why not?
I think of behavior scripts as private backscripts. So in your case
you're setting the behavior of a field, but then you're going to the
message box to try invoking a handler in a behavior script, and that
handler can't be seen from anywhere except your field. Try
send "centerTextVertically" to field <nameOfField>
another way to do this would be to also set the behavior of the message
box field to the same behavior script, but that way lies madness.
