Hi Nicolas, 72 Objects aren't that much and I think this isn't much of a problem for LiveCode. If you try to build a standalone, it might take a little longer because of the many objects, but I don't expect any problems besides that.
Whether the stack performs well really depends on the computer it runs on. How old and slow are the computers you want to run the stack on? If your Pentium is a 300Mhz CPU and the "minimum memory" is 256MB then you might have a problem. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Download the Installer Maker Plugin 1.7 for LiveCode here http://qery.us/za On 27 jan 2012, at 01:32, Nicolas Cueto wrote: >> What exactly are you trying to do? > > A group gets cloned, and the icons of its two buttons get set to the > id of one of those 100's of jpgs.
