------------------------------------------------------------------------

--The best place for these scripts is in the Home stack, thus
--making "ChangeObjectLayer" available to all your stacks.

--Begin ChangeObjectLayer 1.0

--This is the handler called by the target object.
--The call, "setLayer", should be the second line
--of the object's script, after "on mouseUp".

on setLayer
  global objectNumber,objectType,optionState
  put the optionKey into optionState

  --We need information about the target object — get it from
  --the "objectInfo" function.
  put objectInfo() into doMenuWhich

  lock screen
  set lockMessages to true

  --Go from the browse tool to the object's editing tool
  --and select the object.
  if objectType = "button" then choose btn tool else choose fld tool
  select the target

  --This is where the work gets done.

  repeat until the number of the target = objectNumber
    set cursor to busy

    --Find out if the object goes to a higher or lower layer, or
    --if it's all just a waste of time.
    if doMenuWhich < 0 then doMenu "Send Farther"
    if doMenuWhich > 0 then doMenu "Bring Closer"
    if doMenuWhich = 0 then exit repeat
  end repeat
  beep

  --We're finished so let's clean up & return everything to normal.
  set cursor to 4
  choose browse tool
  unlock screen
  set lockMessages to false
  put empty into objectNumber
  put empty into objectType
  put empty into optionState

  --Let's remove the "setLayer" call for the user, that is,
  --if it's in the right place!
  if line 2 of script of target contains "setLayer" then
    put script of target into objectScript
    put empty into line 2 of objectScript
    set script of target to objectScript
  else
  end if

  --We just want to change the object's layer so let's not
  --execute its normal script
  exit to HyperCard

end setLayer

--This is the function that returns all the object information
--needed to allow "setLayer" to perform properly.

function objectInfo
global objectNumber,objectType,optionState

--Is the Object a field or a button?
if the name of the target contains "field" then
  put "field" into objectType
else
  put "button" into objectType
end if

--Is the object a card or background object?
if the name of the target contains "bkgnd" then
  put "bkgnd" into objectClass
else
  put "card" into objectClass
end if

--What is the object's current number?
put the number of the target into fromThis

--What is the highest possible number of the object
if objectType = "button" then
  if the name of the target contains "bkgnd" then
    put the number of last bg btn into theRange
  else
    put the number of last btn into theRange
  end if
else
  if objectType = "field" then
    if the name of the target contains "card" then
      put the number of last cd field into theRange
    else
      put the number of last field into theRange
    end if
  end if
end if
--Now we know the object's possible range.

--This is the function part of the function.  It returns
--the target number of the object.

--Prompt the user for a target object number
--& give the valid range of numbers.
ask "Set " &objectClass &&objectType &&fromThis && "to what number? (1-" &theRange &")"
if it is empty then exit to HyperCard
set cursor to 4
put it into objectNumber

--If user holds down option key while invoking "setLayer"
--then the following error checking is bypassed.
if optionState is up then

  --Error checking...make sure the user enters a valid number.
  if objectNumber > theRange or objectNumber < 1 then
    beep
    answer "Sorry!  “" &objectNumber &"” is not a valid " &objectType &&"number."
    exit to HyperCard
  else
  end if
end if

--Now we have the target number and information we need to proceed.
return objectNumber - fromThis
end objectInfo

--end ChangeObjectLayer 1.0
