- HyperCard and Desk Accessories
-
- HyperCard IIgs does not handle new desk accessories as well as it should.
- Specifically, the Edit menu is not handled properly:
-
- o When a desk accessory is first opened, HyperCard correctly enables all
- the Edit menu items except Undo. If the desk accessory window then
- becomes not the frontmost window before being closed, HyperCard will not
- reenable the Edit menu items for the desk accessory.
-
- o HyperCard has an off-by-one error when calling SystemEdit to pass
- Edit menu actions to desk accessories Cut is sent as Undo, Copy is sent
- as Cut,etc. Undo is not enabled, so no error occurs when it is selected.
- It is impossible to send the Clear edit message to a desk accessory under
- HyperCard IIgs version 1.0 except through an external command or
- procedure.
-
-
- Externals limited to objects in the current stack
-
- If you use any object or property of a different stack as a parameter to an
- XCMD or XFCN, HyperCard will crash.
