Attached below is another solution, using an invisible "sprite".
How did you make the invisible sprite Scott? I just clicked on your Sprite's show key and nothing appeared Is it just an empty drawing which you keep? I haven't tried that yet
I almost worked out that one myself after my intial post But I made a visible sprite and then shrunk it - it sort of worked but
because the sprite was visible once it was ticking I couldn't use the mouse to switch off the clock or anything else because the sprite got in the way
Heh, heh... The sprite is a tiny RectangleMorph, which is:
(a) Invisible -- color transparent, borderWidth 0. (b) Locked -- so that the sprite doesn't get in the way of mouse use.
thanks
btw if you close the viewer of an invisible sprite is it possible to get it back?
I had that problem last week when a student was making a lunar lander disappear by hiding it then he inadvertently closed the viewer and we couldn't work out how to get it back so he lost his work
