If it's modelled on the AW structure, then this is my take:<br><br>Erase=1 in the decision will erase anything the decision structure left on screen when the flow moves out of that structure.<br><br>EraseonExit=1 will leave any content the decision icon structure displays until the decision icon structure is exited.<br><br>So EraseonExit=1 should let your decision icons build up, Erase=1 will erase the whole shebang when the dec structure is exited.<br><br>Dave <br><br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">To: xerte@lists.nottingham.ac.uk<br>Subject: RE: [Xerte] Decision eraseOnExit does not work properly?<br>From: peter.huppertz@baselgovernance.org<br>Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2009 13:31:42 +0100<br><br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Hi Dave,</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">using the same ID was a tip from Julian
and it seems to work. But indeed it is somehow unusual if you work with
flash, html, etc.</font>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Small updates on my issue:</font>
<br>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">1) all pages that I add after page2
are displayed one above the other. NOTHING get erased anymore ...</font>
<br><font size="2" face="sans-serif">2) If I change erase=1 in the decision
icon the navigation and the display of the different pages works fine,
the only drawback is, that the previous content in the decision icon gets
erased also (as it should be regarding the help). I just want to build
up my page using multiple parts.</font>

This may have nothing to do with it, but are there 2 icons with the same
id?<br>
In Authorware this is a no-no and causes strange behaviours.<br>

Hi List,</font><font size="2" face="Verdana"> <br>
</font><font size="2" face="sans-serif"><br>
I have the following structure:</font><font size="2" face="Verdana"> <br>
</font><font size="2" face="sans-serif"><br>
pageContainer</font><font size="2" face="Verdana"> </font><font size="2" face="sans-serif"><br>
-- fw id=currentFWID</font><font size="2" face="Verdana"> </font><font size="2" face="sans-serif"><br>
---- page1</font><font size="2" face="Verdana"> </font><font size="2" face="sans-serif"><br>
-------decision id=currentFWID, eraseOnExit=1, branch=sequence, repeat=all</font><font size="2" face="Verdana">
</font><font size="2" face="sans-serif"><br>
----------pagepart1.1</font><font size="2" face="Verdana"> </font><font size="2" face="sans-serif"><br>
----------pagepart1.2</font><font size="2" face="Verdana"> </font><font size="2" face="sans-serif"><br>
----- page2</font><font size="2" face="Verdana"> <br>
</font><font size="2" face="sans-serif"><br>
on an entrypage I created a button with the onRelease event script currentFWID.nextPage().</font><font size="2" face="Verdana">
</font><font size="2" face="sans-serif"><br>
Everything works fine except that when I reach the end of the decision
page2 is displayed on top of page1, thus the content of page1 is NOT erased
at the end of the decision branch. What did I do wrong?</font><font size="2" face="Verdana">
