[Xerte] Decision eraseOnExit does not work properly?

[Peter Huppertz]

Hi Dave,

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.
Small updates on my issue:

1) all pages that I add after page2 are displayed one above the other. 
NOTHING get erased anymore ...
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.

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

Hi List, 

I have the following structure: 

pageContainer 
-- fw id=currentFWID 
---- page1 
-------decision id=currentFWID, eraseOnExit=1, branch=sequence, repeat=all 

----------pagepart1.1 
----------pagepart1.2 
----- page2 

on an entrypage I created a button with the onRelease event script 
currentFWID.nextPage(). 
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?
