It does work with opaque set to "true". But that should not matter. It seems to me a bug. If others agree, I will send to to QC. This came about from a post on the use-list, where the OP want to find a message that was sent when the cursor stopped dragging in the scrollbar of a field. There is very ...

Attached is a rather simple stack with a graphic and a field. There is a single handler, a "mouseLeave" handler, and it is in the graphic script. But if one moves the cursor in an out of that graphic, the mouseLeave handler fires both in and out, as if there was a "mouseEnter" handler in existence a...

Stan.

Are you saying that operator malfunction was somehow involved here?

The only solace I can get from all this is that RunRev must have bigger fish to fry than to buddy up, like in the old days, with our cozy little group. If that is so, then at least they must be financially healthy, and I am happy for that. But I am a particularly bad example within that little group...

Jacque. Hi. Is it possible the msg box changes the customPropertySet? Yipes, Jacque, How? Anyway the contents of that field have not changed in any way. That "do" handler ditty still shows the same suite of props. And guess what? Msg now pulls the data from that custom prop. All I had to do was wait...

Bernd. I use them a lot as well, and have had no issues at all until now. I just went back to the list of custom properties of that field. There are nine, all "ordinary" contents, that is, no arrays. The "customKeys" of that field shows a list of all nine, one per line, and the troublesome one is nu...

To move forward I have populated a global variable. This works fine, especially since I do not need that particular data between sessions. But the issue is structural within LC, or at least between LC and my machine. And why, now, does getting the custom prop value from msg work, but not from a runn...

Stam. Yep, just a list of three numbers on three lines. But a good idea about the possible issue.

Richmond. Gnomic? Really? Have you read my simple, precise and straightforward posts? Can you give an example of a better way to describe the issue?

Craig

Well, the problem is back. I can get the value of that custom prop from message but not in a handler. I even restarted my machine.

Do I have to populate a field instead????

LC 9.6.9 Mac Ventura 13.4

Never mind. I restarted LC and all works fine. That is worrisome for me, though, since this stack is used as a standalone every day by several others...

I am, right now, in the inspector, looking at the list of custom properties of a field. One of those properties is "the enteredLength" and it has a value of "444". Another property is "the sessionLengths", and it has a value of: 222 333 444 If I, from msg, say, ask for the value of "the enteredLengt...

I have no idea, but here is what ChatGPT thinks: in HTML5, is the "diamond" character reserved in some way, in that it cannot be properly displayed? Short answer: no 🙂 There is no “diamond” character that’s reserved or forbidden in HTML5. What does happen a lot is a classic encoding/font issue that ...

Alex.

I have never done so, but isn't the "Application" menu as open to modification as any other?

Craig

I'm afraid we cannot exspect this on the internet these days anymore... Actually, I was serious. How could any form of AI, and I have firsthand experience with their getting technical topics wrong, abuse their "native" language to such an extent? It almost makes me think this is a real human. :shoc...

How could a bot post be so poorly written?

I at least expect good grammar, spelling and punctuation.
