Choice problem
[1/6] from: kpeters::otaksoft::com at: 13-Sep-2007 10:17
Hi all ~
I have a layout with (among other faces) a number of choices.
If a particular choice (the others are fine) is in dropped-down state and
I click one of the buttons from that layout, I get:
** Script Error: Invalid path value: flags
** Where: flag-face?
** Near: all [face/flags find face/flags flag]
>>
The only difference between this choice and the other choices (that I can see)is that
it
is by far the widest and, when dropped down, covers a few of the other faces
entirely.
Where do I start to look here/what code is breaking? I have a feeling that if I could
tell the
choice to hide the drop-down things might be well...
Is there a way to do that? Or am I totally wrong all the way here?
TIA,
Kai

Can you post the piece of code?

Whoa - that was awful again - sorry for that. Forgot to switch back to plain text :(
Allessandro ~
I believe the code below crashes when the choice is in dropped down state and thus covers
a face
that the function wants to talk to.
Does anyone know how to tell a choice to "roll up"?
TIA,
Kai

Could you include an example of the function being used? ie, a layout with 'choice's
in that uses the function in some way.

Pin down the exact line where the error
occurs by inserting PRINT lines at various
places.
If you suspect the code below then prove
your hypothesis.
Then it's possible to investigate the face
involved just before the line which gives
the error.

Anton.
