I think Mike's solution is the best. I didn't know you could mark cards in
the way he suggested - doesn't seem much point in rolling your own when LC
can do it for you. I guess the performance thing could be an issue if you
can't use a custom property and there's a large number of cards.

Well I put together a simple stack demonstrating a shared field with 2 lines,
one for "barked" one for "darked" and some buttons to "dark" a card or "bark" a
card and then find cards with those in that field. There are also buttons to
"unbark", "undark", "Silence all" and "blind all". (Cute huh?
When i paste code into the script editor it doesn't set the dirty bit. Has
it always been this way and I've just never noticed it before?

Aye, but of course if you have that many cards you should probably be doing
this through SQL.

Okay I was going to make a demo stack of how to do this, but I have run across
a problem someone was talking about earlier and I didn't get it then but I sure
do now!
In a button as part of a background group on a card I have:
On mouseUp
put the id of this card into theFirstCard
go next
I suspect that using a customproperty of the card would be faster for
large numbers of cards. Accessing the contents of a field is slow,
relative to pulling customprops. But it probably doesn't matter unless
you have >1000 cards.

You could come at this from a different direction. Since you can mark
conditionally, you can set a property (or global, or have a hidden checkbox,
or whatever) and then change your marks on the fly based on that.
IE, if you have a "darked" hidden checkbox on your cards and need to loop
through you
One possibility would be to maintain a list of the "barked" cards somewhere,
maybe in a custom property of your main stack. You could do that with a
setProp handler for "barked" that added the card ID to the master list if the
property was set to true and removed it if it was set to false (assu
I think you are right Mark. A hidden field with the word "barked" or "darked"
in it and some use of the find command would serve you better. Undarking all
cards though would definitely require a repeat loop or a recursive call, with
Exit to top when you cannot find any more.

Hey dudes,
The "marked" property is so easy to use. "go next marked" and "unmark all
cards" are so fast and foolproof! Very handy.
I'm wondering if I can somehow define my own versions of "marked"
E.g., in a hypothetical stack, the "marked" of cards 3, 10, 22 and 99 is "true"
I somehow define

The solution to having line breaks work when using UTF16 text is to not do
that, it doesn't work.
I tried several characters that contain a byte that could look like a return
and ... when the text is UTF16 that byte of a normally legit unicode character,
is treated as a return. My favorite test
