Hi, I was hoping that someone could explain what is going on. I have a main stack with multiple sub stacks all of which use the main stack’s menu bar. In the menubar group I have a mouseDown handler to update the menus before they are shown. The sub stacks have fields which may, or may not, have a property “noType” with a value of “true”.
In the mouseDown handler in the menuBar group, the following does not work: put the noType of the focusedObject && the focusedObject into msg I can see that the focusedObject is correct even though the value of the property is not shown. If I place this into the mouseDown handler I get the expected result: put line 1 of the openStacks into theTopStack put the selectedField into theSelectedField put word 2 of theSelectedField into theSelectedFieldNumber put the noType of field theSelectedFieldNumber of stack theTopStack into msg Why does the first one line scrip not work and the longer four line script work?
