AnimationEngine pending messages

[Alex Tweedly]

I'd give it a try with the code as in the docs (under cancel)

It might just be that you catch additional timed messages that have 
triggered while you are inside your loop.
What the heck - do that code twice :-)

-- delete all outstanding messages
repeat until the pendingMessages is empty
   cancel item 1 of line 1 of the pendingMessages
end repeat
-- and do it again just for luck
repeat until the pendingMessages is empty
   cancel item 1 of line 1 of the pendingMessages
end repeat

-- Alex.

Even in the IDE with the pending messages/message box open I can only delete one line of the pending messages and then a new message keeps coming after a bit. Is there a way to absolutely stop ALL of them that I am missing?
