Scott,
Can your "event theater" help Tim do what he is seeking?

Hi all,
Three questions about etoys.
First, is there a way I can capture the event of turning a page in a book to fire off a script? Specifically:
click next to go to page4
this fires page4.startTheFun
click prev, then click next again
fires page4.startTheFun again
Don't know - I'll let others answer this.
Second, when looping within a script, it appears that the screen updates are batched. If I do "repeat 10 ... forward 10", it looks the same as if I did "forward 100". Is there a way around this, or do all screen updates happen on a clock tick.
Disable the "batchPenTrails" preference. We now changed the default.
Last, is there a way to wait a set amount of time, other than rolling my own "wait" using a variable?
Not in this version of Etoys, no.
