Behaviors

[Scott Rossi]

Hi Pete:

Not sure if this is true in your case, but one reason why this can
sometimes happen is if, for whatever reason, a control that has a behavior
assigned to it gets opened before is associated behavior is present in
memory.  You might check if there is any delay occurring when launching
the library stack. 

You can usually get around this without exiting LiveCode by using a script
to set a control's behavior to the same behavior reference.  You can also
try setting the control's behavior to empty first.
