Thank you for your suggestions: lock messages has improved it so it is acceptable in 6.7.3. Not tried 7.0.3 yet. I am in a position to group elements together into individual groups, for example: Grids Bars Segments Labels etc. and will then investigate them by deleting the individual groups. Hopefully smoother still after this. I noticed this in the dictionary, is it still valid? "The screen is locked while a resizeStack handler <applewebdata://95D15823-97B1-46A7-8064-378A5C220C2B/glossary/h/228.xml> is running, so it is not necessary to use the lock screen <applewebdata://95D15823-97B1-46A7-8064-378A5C220C2B/dictionary/command/687.xml> command <applewebdata://95D15823-97B1-46A7-8064-378A5C220C2B/glossary/c/99.xml> to prevent changes from being seen.” All the best Terry _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
