helpful

Okay, figured that one out. The cylinder button has:
    this.addScript(function onMouseUp(evt) {
            lively.morphic.Menu.openAt(evt.getPosition(), 'Number of
cylinders',   this.menuItems); }).tag([]);
Maybe the editor showing no scripts was on the button label…

LivelyEngine was deleting and rebuilding all the buttons on every click to
update the button labels (e.g. in setRunning)
