Bug or Feature - Tranparent Buttons Non-Responsive

[Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami]

OK, this seems to be another case of the mysterious LC 8.* IDE issues.


e.g. after rebooting and making a big button with opaque false and small label.. it works… a few moments ago I could not invoke the property inspector for any object. I had to reboot LC

then I copied  a button from one stack to another and tried to edit the script of that button, but the script editor will not accept any keyboard input even though my cursor is blinking there..  Close the SE and then control click on the button again, SE opens… now keyboard input is accepted.

I get this a lot in LC 8… mysterious anomalies… vary hard to get recipes for them.

this makes one nervous… how may issues that are in the IDE are pose as "bugs" in our own code, when in fact they are not?
