the texstyle of the clickline

[Éric Chatonet]

Bonjour Leo,

In Revolution, objects inherit some of the properties of their owner.
That is especially true for text attributes, colors, patterns and so on.
When such a property is inherited, asking for it returns empty.
The docs says: Use the effective keyword to get the displayed property 
of an object, regardless of whether the object itself has that property 
set.
So in your handler:

on mouseUp
   if the effective textstyle of the clickline is "plain" then
     set the textstyle of the clickline to "bold"
   else
     set the textstyle of the clickline to "plain"
   end if
end mouseup
