I include a script in every card I ever create: on sanitize -- reset everything to the state I want it to be when it gets distributed end sanitize
I've heard of another doing the same thing with on stripandship Then on the very first card I have two scripts that are on sanitize sanitizeFirst repeat with x = 2 to the number of cards go to card x sanitize end repeat end sanitize on sanitizeFirst -- reset everything to the state I want it to be when it gets distributed end sanitizeFirst Several things happen with this. 1. I am assured that I reset things the way I want them 2. I can test each card's sanitize script independently to make sure it does everything I want 3. If a card does not have a sanitize script, I get an error and I make a sanitize script for it 4. I don't have to remember anything other than when I create a new field or button, I need to add it to the sanitize script so that it gets set appropriately before I distribute it. Works for me. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
