Items deselect themselves-is this a bug?

Post by Simon Knight » Wed Jan 27, 2010 1:07 am

I am quite new to Revolution so there is a chance that I am causing this problem in some way.

I have a stack that contains one card with a number of graphic objects placed on it. I have code that sets whether the graphics are visible or not. The code runs as I want but when I go into edit mode and select a graphic item and open the inspector the item will automatically deselect if I attempt to make any changes to the settings displayed in the inspector window.

Has anyone else witnessed this type of behaviour?

My objects stay selected when I open the inspector.

I think I have discovered what is happening:

If I display a script and then select another object, the new object selects for a few seconds and then deselects. I was expecting to be able to display two script windows at once.
