Chris,

That is exactly what I want.
If it works I will be a happy puppy.

Does setProp get sent when a custom prop is changed? So i would then trap a setProp message and update there?
Or do I use setProp to set the prop of a custom property?


Thank you,

Tom

Have you checked out the getProp and setProp handlers? You can use setProp
to run any code you want when a custom property's value is changed. Maybe
that's what you want?

I'm using a custom prop to store if the button it self is a big yellow
one or a non-yellow one.
Then via scripting the next time the button is hit it asks for the
custom prop cYellow and if true sets the state to a yellow button. However,
I want to (without setting the icon itself ) have it update
using the custom prop without having to click the button.


It is confusing because I am manually setting the button states for
three buttons in a group on top of each other.
button layer 1 is the yellow or not base button
button layer 2 is the icon of the button
button layer 3 is the available of the button ( a gray button that says
it is not available BUT can be used to reset the others)

So I want to set the cYellow of a button and tell the button to go
ahead and check the cYellow and update but not actually click the
button to do it.

I guess I could check the button's cYellow and change the icon my self
but I was hoping once set there could be an update or something.

Tom,

Maybe I'm not understanding exactly what you're wanting to do, but
can't you
just set the icon of the button using "set the icon of btn "myButton"
to
1001" (inserting the correct id number, of course).  Is this not what
you
want?  You can also set hilitedIcon, armedIcon, and others if needed.

Ken,


Then it updates, BUT that is not what I want. I have recorded scripts
that would run on a click and so I don't want to do that. I need
something like: update page or update button to force the new icon to
appear after setting it without executing the button.

I wonder if focus does anything???

I will go check.

Hey All,

Right now I have to click at it to get it to update.
-----------
What happens if you send it a click?

on updateIcon
  changeIcon ## whatever your handler to change the icon is
  click at the loc of btn whichButton
end updateIcon
