Hello,
I have finally found the bad object bug, the one that created bad objects in your application. The correction will be available in the next version.
In the meantime, to avoid this bug :
-> If your program of events contains qualifiers
-> If your program of events contains an object whose only creation is in the program of event (no instance in the frame)
---> Do not use the action editor! The action editor accidentaly deletes the objects, which are replaced by bad objects.
Good to know thank you so much
[]The correction will be available in the next version.[/]
And when will that be? I have currently quite a lot of
qualifiers in my application <img src="/center/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
I only recently discovered how helpful they can be...
I know you guys must have quite a sh*t load of work
to do, so I don't mean to hurry. Just asking.
This is good news Francois!
Nice detective work to ferret out the problem.
the_raven -- from Francois's message qualifers are OK -- You just have to be careful and follow his advice to avoid the problem. Many people use MMF for years without the "bad object" but now a cause of the bad object has been located so hopefully its will be a memory soon.
Great news, Francois- I can't wait for the next update.

So -->If you use Qualifiers, don't delete all objects with qualifiers attached to them?
and
-->on't Create an object with a Qualifier during runtime, then have an event that creates the object with an embedded qualifier then delete the object from the frame. Basically this sounds like it's trying to create a qualifier but qualifiers can't exist without an active object to reference.
-->I don't know what the "action editor" would be. Confusing label. <img src="/center/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
I think I got it. <img src="/center/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
No wonder this bug is such a pain to locate.
Soon I think even the most sloppy hammer and chisel in hand developer will have a flawless time creating in MMF. <img src="/center/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
Are you sure this is the only cause? Will we get rid of Bad objects forever?

Yay! I'm glad such ancient bugs are fixed at last. It has been a nightmare for clickers for many years )
Well I cannot be 100% sure, but I am confident this was the cause of many of the problems.
[]-->If you use Qualifiers, don't delete all objects with qualifiers attached to them?[/]
No, I never said that. You can delete what you want.
[]-->
Did I said that? No. You can create objects with qualifiers in runtime.
The only think I said, is do not use the action editor with qualifiers in your program. The action editor is the list of action you get by double clicking on an empty square in the event editor...
Great work Francois! <img src="/center/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
