finishEnterFun() and doneProc() callback

[SS]

finishEnterFun() in doneProc() of a enterpath function does'nt work.
However I can explicitly call finishEnterFun(). So how do I complete
the enterPath ? After the doneProc() is called I want the function
to quit rather than asking the user to enter the next point

thanks,
Sriram

Yes, the documentation specifically says: "Do not call finishEnterFun or
cancelEnterFun from within any of the callback procedures."

What are the arguments you are giving to enterPath()?

Are you calling changeNextEnterFun() at any point? Are you deleting the
points from pointList() in the doneProc()? Are you modifying the points so
the last two points aren't identical?

Yes Iam deleting the pointsList by setting the form->points to nil.
No Iam not calling the changeNextEnterFun(). How can I use this in this
context ?

Don't delete the pointsList. By doing so you are resetting the enterfunction.
That's why it keeps starting over.

Pete,
Tried it. It does'nt work. Should I be using the
changeNextEnterFun(). If yes how should I use it.


Thanks,

No, you should not be using changeNextEnterFun().

If you aren't clearing the points list, then it should be finished once you
exit the doneProc unless something else is going on.

What would be most helpful is a code sample to see what you are actually
doing.
