Hi Mark,

I was referring to "standalone," but I got a bonus on this one! ;)

Thanks,
Calvin

works.

Hmmm... startup of a standalone app or startup in the IDE? In the
script of the first card of the stack (not in the stack script itself)
you can do the following:

on startup
   -- the startup message is only sent to standalone apps
   -- make some things invisible
   -- set the visible of someObject to false
   -- set the visible of group lotsOfObjects to false
end startup

on preOpenStack
   -- this one works in the IDE
   -- make some things invisible
end preOpenStack

Hi,

I need some guidance of the LC parlance when making objects visible/invisible on start up. I've tried some experiments, but nothing works.

FYI - for anyone that is interested, I *really* learned a lot from Mark's
presentation/chat (I couldn't get good video consistently on David's). A number of things congealed in my mind. I'm still scraping around on some of the syntax "particulars," but what I am coding is working great for pseudocode until I figure out the real syntax. :)

Standing by...
Calvin
