widget properties

[Neville Smythe]

I have submitted the bug report (Bug 23670 <https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=23670>) As others have said, it is not likely this will be considered a high priority bug but it should be on the record.

Interestingly eg setting tbar[“textcolor”] to a value and then

set the properties of widget “foo" to tbar 

does work (although the properties are still reported as empty). 

Many thanks for the reference to Ali’s forum article, which is very helpful. I came across this  problem because I am adding listing of all object properties to my nsScriptdatabase utility. Thus in version 2 it will be possible to compare stacks in the database down to the complete saved state of the stack, and so (theoretically) reconstruct the stack. Ali’s post prompts me to add listing the handlers of a widget which could be very useful information. I expect to upload version 2 within a few days.
