> what is the message hierarchy in Rev?
Hi Dave,
From bottom to top:
* control
* card or group -- I don't know & am too lazy to test
* group or card -- ditto
* stack
* stacks in use -- if any, in LIFO order
* the MetaCard engine
I'm getting most of the above from the M/C User Guide, which places
"Home stack" where I placed "stacks in use." I don't believe "Home
stack" is relevant in Revolution.
FWIW, at runtime you can get a list of the objects that are
higher/lower in the message path than a specific object by targeting
the object with a handler calling the backScripts/frontScripts
function respectively.
