Sorry, but it seemed to me in my first tests that the statement deleted only the definitions, at least so it reads in the Inspector, also if I changed the panel. Then in other tests it put a 0 in the first line of custom properties list... Then I tested with message box and worked... In the end my guess is that it is just another bug of LiveCode...

Thank you Klaus.
PS
I was trying to say that LiveCode don't updates the Inspector information about custom properties when I use that command. And if updates the list, it shows wrong data.
So, I'm wonder if this is a known bug of LiveCode or if it's just another thing that is broken in my stack.

Hi Mag,
AHA! Yes, looks like this is the case.
Obviously LC only updates the inpsector after not-scripted actions.
In cases like these, just select another object and then again the
previous object to force an updaae of the inspector.

Nice suggestion to change the selected object. it is not enough to change the Inspector tab. Thank you.

OK, tried. It works only when i run the command from the message box, it fails from a button script. I think it's a bug of LiveCode version 6.6.2

Hi Bernd,
thank you so much for the stack, really appreciated. So the problem is the IDE that just displays wrong information.
And what about to delete the keys along with the properties?

Hi Mag,
click at "showCustomProps" it reports the content of the 2 custom properties
then
click at "showCustomKeys" and it shows the 2 keys.
Now click button "deleteCustomProps"
again click the 2 "show..." buttons
Nothing appears in the field.
So not only the content of the custom properties is gone but also the keys of the custom properities.
What happens in the inspector is that once it is set to show the custom properties and the custom properties change the inspector does not update the custom properties. You have to switch to another pane in the inspector e.g. Colors and Pattern and go back to custom properties to see the change. Then you will also notice that keys and content is gone after clicking "deleteCustomProps".
It is a bit confusing but it works.
Kind regards
Bernd
