Hi all, another day another query

I have a handler with a breakpoint immediately following a 'go to card 1' command that never triggers (and nor does the code following it). My issue is that the code following the breakpoint is supposed to refresh a data grid on card 1 and, to avoid needless suffering (lessons/m/datagrid/l/7340-what-sorts-of-things-should-i-not-do-in-order-to-avoid-needless-suffering), you should apparently never try to draw a data grid that isn't visible on screen.

Any suggestions?

Hi...

Then why not update your datagrid before you leave the card... maybe something like..

on mouseUp
lock screen
-- do your refresh stuff
go card 1
unlock screen
end mouseUp

mmm... the code button does nor seem to be working in the forum...

Wouldn't that still be refreshing the data grid before displaying it?

Oddly enough the problem seems to have fixed itself anyway... Perhaps I just needed that restart hehe
Thanks for replying though.

No, it would refresh and then go to card 1... you wouldn't see the refresh happen as the screen would be locked
