<font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi Dave,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">as I see it </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">erase=1 erases the content immediately
after i leave it, even if i stay in the decision icon</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">erase=0 makes the content stay there</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">eraseonexit=1 should erase all the content
of the decision icon when I move to another icon not located in the decision
icon (not in my case ... this is the problem)</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">eraseonexit=0 the content stays there,
even if I leave the decision icon</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Nevertheless to make sure I tried all
variants but none worked for me the right way ... eraseonexit does not
seem to influence anything in my piece ...</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks for your help! </font>

<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Verdana">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>

Hi Dave,</font><font size=2 face="Verdana"> <br>
</font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
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><font size=2 face="Verdana">
</font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
Small updates on my issue:</font><font size=2 face="Verdana"> <br>
</font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
1) all pages that I add after page2 are displayed one above the other.
NOTHING get erased anymore ...</font><font size=2 face="Verdana"> </font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
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><font size=2 face="Verdana">

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"> </font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
<br>
I have the following structure:</font><font size=2 face="Verdana"> </font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
<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"> </font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
<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">
