I thought I knew how these things worked. Even HC does this, I just found
out.
Two stacks, "A" and "B". In a button handler on "A":
on mouseUp
wait 200
go stack "A" -- remember, the button is in "A"
end mouseUp
During the wait period, if I click anywhere on stack "B", the frontmost stack
is "B" after the timeout. If, instead of "wait", I have a repeat loop
that allows me time to click on stack "B" before it terminates, I still am left in
"B". The click's loc is remembered with a vengeance, overRiding the "go" command,
far more than I would have thought possible.
Pushing/Popping cards, going to "A" five times, nothing matters.
It's like I am 1 hour into HC in '87. I can't believe I never noticed before.
This isn't even a Rev thing.
