I've been trying to do some simple graphic effects (gradients, for example) without using the Overlay object, but it seems like you can't use the Paste Object into Background (or Add Backdrop) command inside a fastloop. Is that something everybody here already knows? Am I doing something wrong or is there an easy way to get around this problem?
Thanks

You can, it should look like this:
On pressing "Enter" >>> Start loop "cat" 200 times
On loop "cat" >>> Add to backdrop active1, active1.x = active1.x + 1
When you paste in to the background or add backdrop it temporarily counts as an extra object. So if your object limit is 300 and 100 objects exist already, you can only paste 200 times per event-cycle.
Increasing the object limit should help (frame properties, MMF only).
