Have a button to include a scaled version of a playfield in another playfield. Due to SQ-935 I can't place them in a holder (they "auto-scale" further).
So how in a script can I change a playfield to either "behave like holder" or "auto-line layout"? I tried to figure it out by inspecting the menu item (so if someone could educate me I can learn the other "tricks", a quick YouTube video would be nice, be sure to mention what key shortcuts you are using if you do ;)
or just send some script magic and you will feed a fish for a day ;) Stephen

Assuming you have set pref: "debugHaloHandle" in "debug" category... 1. Bring up halo on playfield, "menu" halo then "Playfield options" (optionally pin this menu for convenience) 2. Shift+rmb over "behave like holder" (optionally pin this menu for convenience) 3. On "debug" menu select "explore morph" (so now exploring the menu item morph, not the playfield) 4. Note the "selector" is: #toggleBehaveLikeAHolder 5. Click on (highlight) "target": PasteUpMorph 6. Ctrl/Alt-b to bring up a browser for PasteUpMorph 7. #toggleBehaveLikeAHolder is in the "options" category. The one-liner should be what you are looking for. Alternative Etoys-like method, after step 2 open a viewer on the menu item itself (or drag out a copy/clone). In the "miscellaneous" category is "Menu fire" tile.
