deleteEPS

Type

message

Summary

Sent to an EPS object just before it is removed from the stack.

Syntax

deleteEPS

Description

Handle the deleteEPS message if you want to perform cleanup before an EPS object is removed from the stack.

The actual deletion is not triggered by the deleteEPS message, so trapping the message and not allowing it to pass does not prevent the EPS object from being removed.

However, the undo command will restore an EPS object after it is deleted by the user.

Examples

on deleteEPS -- prevent the deletion by immediately undoing it
  beep
  send "undo" to this card in 5 milliseconds
end deleteEPS
