Hi Jan.
Thanks. Perfect. I can't imagine what all goes on between "on preOpenStack"
and "end PreOpenStack"
But your suggestion to insert the reset at the end of that handler work just
fine.
Here is a button script to test the strategy:
CAUTION; This meddles with answer dialog script. But restores it at the end.
on mouseUp --Change the location of the answer dialog box
answer "This is the default position of the answer box."
put the script of card 1 of stack "answer dialog" into tScript
put lineoffset("end preOpenStack", tScript) into tLineNo
--Define the new script line.
put "Set the loc of this stack to "& "200,400" into tNewScriptLine
--Alter the script
put tNewScriptLine & cr & "end preOpenStack" into line tLineNo of tScript
set the script of card 1 of stack "answer dialog" to tScript
--Test of new loc.
answer "Have I moved?"
--Now restore the deafulat script if you like
put "end preOpenStack" into line tLineNo of tScript
set the script of card 1 of stack "answer dialog" to tScript
-- Or you might just change the new script line to "set the loc of this stack
to the screenLoc"
end mouseUp
