Re: How to use PROP_TYPE_BUTTON?

(Lars pinged me; I'm having finger-keyboard connectivity problems these
days -- not medical, just that I can't move keys 520km away from my
fingertips. Oh, and time availability: if someone knows how to stretch 24
hours into 36 without bouncing into Einstein's theory issues, I'm all ears)

You should not update the original one; if you did, you'd slip under the
undo mechanism (which, for stdprop objects, works using lists of property 
values).

If your object's state can be completely described using a list of property
values (which, as a stdprop object, should be the case), then it should not
matter that the specific object instance changed. What are you trying to do
exactly?
