My initial cut just used a single variable to keep track of self. I found out the hard way that a callback (such as an onPaint) can trigger at any time, and when you return, self has been mangled. Using a stack to keep track of the state takes care of that problem. > Also, getSelf isn't in the docs, which explains > why I never found it. 3 lines of code in 17,000, > sheesh. :) *blush* Yet another minor detail to add to the list... -- David Cuny
