Behavior question

[dunbarx at aol.com]

Peter.


A behavior is a property, not a handler in a script. That property is the long id of a button, which contains what one might call a "behavior" handler. The behavior handler is put into sort of its own separate "message path", accessed by other controls that have their behavior properties "point" to the behavior button and its behavior script.


So many behaviors.


Do this. On a new card, make two buttons. Name one "b1" and the other "b2". In the script of "b1", place this handler:


on getRandom
 answer random(99)
end getRandom.


In the script of "b2" place this:


on mouseUp
  getRandom
end mouseUp.


Now set the behavior of btn "b2" to the long id of btn "b1". And finally, click on "b2".


Does this help? I think you are misusing the idea of behaviors.

It's a command.  Even checked the spelling and also copy/pasted the
handler
name from it's declaration into the dispatch command.
