Igor, et al:

I sent the following to the improve-rev list earlier today:

Hi All,

 From the use-rev list:

1. Create a stack with two identically-sized images, "top" & 
"bottom", placed at the same loc.

2.Top image script:

on mouseleave
   answer "left top"
   hide me
   show image "bottom"
end mouseleave

on mouseenter
   answer "entered top"
end mouseenter

3. Bottom image script:

on mouseenter
   answer "entered bottom"
   hide me
   show image "top.gif"
end mouseenter

on mouseleave
   answer "left bottom"
end mouseleave

Image "bottom" is not getting a mouseLeave message until the mouse 
leaves and reenters image "top". There is no mouseLeave message sent 
to image "top" until you exit "top" and reenter it, at which point 
mouseLeave is sent to "bottom" and mouseEnter is sent to "top".  I've 
tried specifically sending mouseLeave & mouseEnter to the images and 
clicking outside image "bottom" before hiding it; but I still get no 
message the first time the mouse leaves "over".  Locking message and 
changing the order of the hide & show messages didn't seem to help 
either.

Perhaps the MC engine needs to update its current control status when 
an image is hidden?
