Copying a button

Post by Lyle Laylin »

I have a film cap button control that I programmed quite a while ago.
Now I would like to perform a similar function on another button.
My thought is to just copy the old button XML file, change the name and button number (and other factors) in the file and viola! a new button!

Only I'm missing something, because even just changing the name (on the file and at the head of the file) and button number, which ought to result in a copy of the original function on a new button, causes Pathfinder server to crash. Not really my desired result.

Any tips on how this might be done?

Thanks!

O Yeah, I'm using notepad to do the editing i case that has anything to do with it.

I have more info now, I'm guessing that I have a naming conflict, as either stack event works as long as it's the only one that's in place.
So if someone knows what items in the stack events can conflict on naming/usage It would be a big help.

Thanks!
