What are your favourite methods to communicate with Subapps? I'm getting used to using subapps as plugins and modules for my apps (saves on having hundreds of little frames in the frame editor). Currently I've been using the Shared Data Object and Global Values, but what other methods do you tend to use?

I use the global function object. I lose track of the variables when I use shared data. It's much easier to use the global funciton object IMO.

It's either Global Values or Global Function Object for me, GFO just seems alot more efficient though, if i was to do an application that would involve alot of sub-apps and communicating between them then GFO is the way to go, if its a simple app with one sub-app then its easier to just use Global Values.

Global Values, I use. Although INI and Array is possible too I think.
