stack window objects

Post by churchken » Fri Jul 27, 2007 11:01 pm

Hi,

When an active stack is running a "high load" program and a second program's window "covers" any of the stack window and is then removed, all objects in the Rev stack window are lost, and the screen shows the residual window of the second program. Only individual objects whose values later change are then visible within the Rev stack window. When the Rev program reaches a "resting point of less CPU load, the Rev stack window finally refreshes.

Is there a way, without forcing the Rev stack to "stay on top", to keep the Rev stack's objects refreshed in the stack window?

Thanks for any ideas.
Ken

Hi Ken,

repeat for each item myItem in myList with messages
-- do something with myItem here
wait 0 millisecs with messages -- give other scripts additional time
end repeat

Best,

Mark
