Yes you are doing it.
I'm not trolling but trying to solve a specific question and i have 
provided code i wrote to do that and explained the reason of why i want 
it to work like this.
I wouldn't waste my time trying code so many days until i make it work.

If you want to think i'm trolling go ahead and do it but please do it in 
your own thread not messing up mines.

There are members here like Tim Chase who said that they find it 
interesting to be able to do what i proposed.

It's ok if you dont want to help, but spamming my thread with your 
trolling assumptions towards me is tiresome and if you gonna do it open 
do it at least in your own thread.
