Well, like I said (but I wasn't aware it didn't go to the whole list). It's a long story, but just note that this is a known issue and there are fixes for it on github already! ;) 

 

I do a very dirty trick so I can send "C#" to canvases' labels in [else/display], it requires having to create the object, you can check it while there's no fix yet.

Yes, of course it all works fine with [print] !
That's what I said.

What does not work is sending it to a canvas.
That's what I need!
