Livecode Flushevents Problem

[level7lab]

Hi there,

I'm having some problems using flushevents in one of my programs.

Participants have an option to click on one of two buttons to make a response (lets call them A and B). In order to stop repetitive clicking recording when the buttons are disabled I have put code:

put flushevents (mouseup) into trash

However, what is happening is, if someone repeatedly presses on say button A while it is disabled, and then presses button B, the program is recording as if button A has been pressed again. After this the program rectifies to normal working order. This problem only happens if one of the buttons is clicked repeatedly during the time a button is disabled.

I have no idea how to stop this from happening. Can anyone help?

Hi level7lab,
Welcome to the forum!

I just tested this in 2 buttons one field:

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   put the short name of me into fld 1
   disable me
   send enableMe to me in 5 seconds
end mouseUp

on enableMe
   enable me
end enableMe

Not getting the same results as you are.

Hi level7lab,

1. welcome to the forum!

2. talking about music etc. is OFF-TOPIC, your question is not (Hint, Hint! ).
So I will move this thread to the correct forum.
