When you are displaying anything else -- when Navigator is pinned to a specific card or group or background -- it doesn't do that, because there's no guarantee that the container is even visible. As you found, you can right-click on any controls in the list and select "Select Objects", which will do its best to select the controls -- for example, even if the browse tool is selected. But you can get the object info for anything right in Navigator, without selecting it, on the Properties and Custom Properties menu. gc _______________________________________________ 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
