I have a repeat loop I'd like to have execute one loop per second. However, I can't use the "wait" command because there are objects moving about on screen that I must not stop (and the "wait" command will stop them). Here's the loop; perhaps someone can advise me how to change it to the "send" structure?

repeat with i = 1 to 6
        set the title of graphic "coverMask" to "Releasing piece " & i & "..."
end repeat

off the top of my head...


Method 1:

put "coverMask" into graphicName
repeat with i = 1 to 6
put "releasing piece " & i & "..." into newTitle
send "set the title of graphic graphicName to newTitle" to me in i seconds
end repeat


Or this that don't work...

Method 2:

on updateTitle i
if i is empty then
put 1 into i
end if
set the title of graphic "coverMask" to "Releasing piece " & i & "..."
if i < 6 then
send "updateTitle i-1" to me in 1 seconds
end if
end updateTitle



Then in your code put this


updateTitle

If there are problems, let me know; I didn't even bother to check this.
