Stacks and cards

[Neurox66]

Hi,

I work with many stacks and cards,
how do I determine which card is it open?

Thanks,
Paolo

Ciao paolo,

many stacks and cards

Why not a global like gMyCurrentCard with an "initCurCD" handler in each stack ?

Code: Select all

global gMyCurrentCard
on initCurCD
   put the long name of this cd into gMyCurrentCard
end initCurCD

or a function return the long name of the current cd ?

Best

Hi.

Or you might just place a handler in a backscript, something like:

on opencard
put the number of this card && the name of this card && the name of this stack
end opencard

This will put all that into the msg box. You can always put the information somewhere else.

Thanks for suggestions,
I can't use the command "current card" because I've opened four card at same time.
I've created a function that updates (add/delete) a global variable with all the cards open.

Hi.

Whatever works for you.

When you say you have four cards open, what that really means is that you have four stacks open in four windows. The "topStack" is the one with focus.

Just so you know how it goes, the line of code I sent before could always be modified to say:

put the number of this card && the name of this card && the name of the topStack
