I tried to get the mousestates into js and run into a problem.

Move the mouse over the comment box (or the mousestate object), watch the max window and wait ...

after approx. 2-3 minutes max 5.04 crashes.

Just tested it with 5.05 – max crashes.

(The javascript 'Testmouse1.js' is based on 'pattrvoyant.js' by Jeremy Bernstein, I think. Several months ago I found it anywhere in the forum.)

It's crashing in the js interpreter, though I have no idea why.

Putting a pair of [change] objects between the X & Y outputs of

I tried your suggestion and it seems to work.

But it's not a 'real' solution or explanation of the crashes. 

Hope max will not crash after one or two hours of clicking and moving the mouse. Will see.

Hmm... to me it seems like a kind of 'buffer overflow' ...

It's a (a good) workaround.

Thanks again; you are the ONE, Chris.
