Setting script in object not working...

[Glen Bojsza]

Thanks Alex, I will try the behavior path...

The funny thing is I swear that this was working in earlier versions. I
even created a new simple stack with two buttons and a field.

the stack has a customproperty call mymessage

mymessage is

on mouseUp
put "hello" into fld tOut
end mouseUp

button "start" has the following script

on mouseUp
set the script of btn "test" to the mymessage of stack tmirror
end mouseUp

Pressing button "start" sets the script of button "test" with the
customproperty.

Pressing button "test" puts "hello" into fld tOut

It works for both ide and the application.

So some how my main project stack has something that changes when made into
an application... I confirmed this with adding a test button to output the
images' scripts... they were all empty?

It is hard to trouble shoot an app if it works in the ide.

The behavior path is a good idea as it might point to where the issue lies.

thanks,

Glen
