Peter,

Sometimes when I am debugging through a handler, it seems to me, that visible 
states do not always happen when I think they should. But they work fine during 
normal running of the script. 

Also, I find it best to use a flag type check set when the item is hidden 
rather than checking the 'live' state of the vis of the object. 

Lastly, sometimes when I am not getting an exit top (exit to top) to respond 
correctly I throw everything that will be exited into a separate handler that I 
send in time to, giving the smallest handler that sends to it time to complete 
itself and then the sent handler can be exited.

Just some thoughts to think on, not sure if they will help.
