Happy Holidays! 
I'm having a problem using FORMS 2.0. I had a program that used FORMS
for the user interface control of some graphical animation. Everything
was marvelous. I decided to add a bit more options to the interface
and so "fdesign"ed up my new features. The program now bombs inside of
the IRIS font manager. This happens while trying to drag a slider
(slide a dragger?). My Stack View shows:
f_fmgetfontinfo(<stripped>)
fmgetfontinfo(<stripped>)
fl_drw_text_cursor(align=4, x=300, y=90, w=50, h=20, c=0, size=11,
style=0, str="0.29", cc=0, pos=-1)
fl_drw_text(align=4, x=300, y=90, w=50, h=20, c=0, size=11, style=0, str="0.29")
fl_drw_text_beside(align=4, x=300, y=90, w=50, h=20, c=0, size=11,
style=0, str="0.29")
draw_slider(ob=0x10050fa8)
handle_slider(ob=0x10050fa8, event=0, mx=0, my=0, key='\000')
fl_handle_it(obj=0x10050fa8, event=0, mx=0, my=0, key='\000')
fl_handle_object(obj=0x10050fa8, event=0, mx=0, my=0, key='\000')

fl_handle_it(obj=0x10050fa8, event=1, mx=383, my=95, key='\000')
fl_handle_object(obj=0x10050fa8, event=1, mx=383, my=95, key='\000')
fl_handle_form(form=0x10048848, event=1, key=0)
do_interaction_step(wait=0)
fl_check_forms()
main()
__start(<stripped>)

Any suggestions? Thanks for your help!
