Using text only script behavior files has advantages and disadvantages. One "con" is the possibility of "rapid profileration" of text scripts (behavior, model, libraries etc.) Your app could easily become like some horrendous-humongous PHP or JS framework with 100's of "dependencies." I am trying control this by working with my "stories" module/stack, by just using two script model_Story.livecodescript # always "on" like a library/backscript, get stuff of disk behavior_Story.livecodescript # which is assigned to the stack, handled the UI/UX for stack This approach requires a lot "Switch cases" as you may be targeting the UI/UX of many different groups on the card or different cards. So far I am happy that I am having to debug just two scripts to manage "everything" But I have question on "closeControl" for which there may be many groups on a single card is it "Switchable?" and can we use it in a single behavior that "looks at" many groups on one card? on closeControl pControl switch pControl case "homeStory" setPref "preferences/modules/portal/story/storyTitle", pStoryTitle setPref "preferences/modules/portal/story/storyScene/", sLastScene case "storyMenu" put empty into fld "storyMenuFld" end switch end closeControl Of I can hack around and find out if it works. But I am thinking over otherd have "been here, done that". an have some advice... We might as well use "on closeCard" any thoughts? _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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
