In the screenshot below the txtColor text object gets overwritten by the Fruit events sitting underneath.

Shouldn't they be independent? Unless I'm misunderstanding how "Wait for previous actions to complete" works?

Sure there's a workaround but then you lose the benefits of the "Wait for previous action".

On larger projects its a bit convoluted that way.

You can request one file, wait for previous action to finish, set text, request the next file, wait, set text.

AJAX only has one value for LastData. So I think the problem is if both requests finish exactly simultaneously (and it will complete immediately when loading a local file in preview mode), then there is only one value for LastData it can provide.
