Printing script problem

[Jim Bufalini]

Thanks Tom,

I'll may try that. But to make it *universal* I'd have to have more than a
button. I'd need to identify which object the script belongs to, such as:

the script of btn myButton of cd thisCard of stack thatStack.
Or,
the script of thatStack
etc.

This would require identifying the control type (btn, field, sb, etc, or
none in the case of a card or stack script) and manually typing in the
control name, card name and stack name.

Assuming this is a high priority bug and will be fixed soon, it may be
easier, for now,  to copy and paste into Notepad (on a PC), which does print
the script out formatted with coloring intact.

Jim

Jim you can also do it by script:
Make a button in another stack with a field for the script and then put
the script into that field and print the card of that stack that the
field is on:

on mouseUp
put the script of card "TheScript" into lmyscript
put lmyscript into field "TheScriptToPrint"
print card "WhereTheScriptFieldIs" -- or print the coordinates of the
field etc.
end mouseUp
