Turn off "Strict Compilation" mode in the prefs and you will see the old behavior.

When I copied the code and clicked the Apply button, the LC editor repeatedly would not let me use a variable unless I first entered it in the list of Local variables. I have seen this before when using code and when opening and editing older stacks. Also, lines like put fld Thicknes into T had to be changed by adding quotes to put fld "Thicknes" into T before the script could be applied. I assume it worked for Michael as presented. Is this something that can be ignored, or do I have some setting wrong in my LC?
