On topstack???

Post by david_ff » Sun Mar 23, 2008 8:52 pm

I give up; this is probably so darn easy but:
how do you sent a message when you click on window to make it the top window. I've tried

on librarystack
send mouseup to btn "Test"
end librarystack
but that doesn't work.

Thanks, Dave

resumestack
and

Various teststacks and stuff:

Try:
[ send "mouseUp" to btn "test" ]

with quotes around mouseUp, or you can:

[ systemWindow stack "stackname" ] --or
[ set the systemWindow of stack "stackname" to true ]

Thanks! It is annoying that 'resumestack' is not listed in the filtered list of messages in the Transcript language dictionary (Help).
