I believe you.


I'm not sure if it's possible using the plugin API, but you could try using a hash of the canvas (as stored in a variant) to identify it, at least that how I get around the problem within pure RB.

The plugin Dynamic Access API let you do pure RB logic within the plugin. Therefore anything you can accomplish in RB can be done in the plugin. Your remark therefore may be of quite a value, but based on the limited info you give, I am not sure if I can follow you.

We have put the canvas in a variant and retrieve the hash value. How would the hash value lead to the canvas.handle? Care to explain?

Would appreciate this very much,

Alfred
