Right. You cannot delete an object that has a running handler.

Folks:
I’m trying to delete an image from a script within that image LC doesn’t like that because the script in the object hasn’t finished yet.
—the image script is:
on mouseUp
put the name of me into myImage
deleteTheImage myImage"
end mouseUp
—In the stack script
on deleteTheImage imageName
delete image imageName
end deleteTheImage
The command failed because the “end mouseUp” has not executed and LC won’t delete the object where a script is running.
How should I approach this? Is there a command to dispatch a message after a short delay? I know there must be, I just can’t find it.
Regards,
Bill
