Hi Dave

Take a look at a script for cloning from another Forum posting, which may be helpful.

Kind Regards,

Thanks Stephen,

I hadn't come across this example before. Even if it doesn't offer a solution to my current problem it looks an interesting one to gain better understanding of cloning. I'll have a look at it.

Thanks again

Dave

Please see page 2... I have an object: my_object
The cloning button, and the bin frame.
The mouse exit code is as follows

two page variables have been added
index=0
my_id=""




where we test for when a cloned object exists before we execute the command. This ensures that mouse pass over the frame will not drop the errors you mentioned.

You could also restrict the clone object button not to be able to clone another object until the current one has been "actioned" with similar switch statement see below...



Hope this helps.

Thanks Stephen and eomc40. I've learnt a lot from your inputs regarding this topic. I'll give you a rest for now whilst I explore your suggestions fully.

Dave
