Searching for a layer will work much faster than creating a new one even if you have to iterate through all the layers in the project. I'm not sure, Can you prove that? As for the amount of RAM used, just open a scene with characters and monitor in Task Manager how much more RAM Moho uses when crea...

So UpdateWidgets not happening for non-modal by default? never notice that.

Great example! thanks!

Well, I'm little bit confused about it, would you please show me a working useful example?

Please someone explain what is MOHO.UpdateTable?

Are you sure it took that amount of memory? Any function to calculate that?

I don't want to iterate over ALL layers, I need a function to find first match and exit the loop.

So we should iterate over document layers and check the layer type? (find the first?) any example?

Your code actually works, except for group layer, so I changed the code to support that as well. Note that I added some flag to prevent fire UpdateWidget and DoLayout couple times.

This is a test case with your code, you can see which events will be fired: -- ************************************************** -- General information about this script -- ************************************************** ScriptName = "TestScript" TestScript = {} function TestScript:Nam...

You right, now works correctly, Thanks!

Well, your code will not fire DoLayout function for me.

I just implemented a simple save/load preferences functionality, but it seems dosn't work: -- ************************************************** -- General information about this script -- ************************************************** ScriptName = "TestScript" TestScript = {} function...

So we don't have any standard way of calling DoLayout function?

brilliant! Thank You so much!
