Just did a test with 7.0.1, and things seem to work as I’d expect. If I put this into a button, card, and stack:
on mouseenter answer “button” — or “card" or “stack” end mouseenter the answer shows up that I would expect. If I do this: on mouseenter answer “button” — or “card or “stack” pass mouseenter end mounter and move over the button, the answers come in the order of “button”, “card”, “stack”. Isn’t that how it should be? > On Jan 9, 2015, at 9:02 AM, Peter M. Brigham <pmb...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I'm not sure I understand.
