Are the stacks you are trying to open in the same folder as the engine? the
paths need to be relative to the directory property which is by default the
directory that the engine is in.

Use the decorations property to hide/shoe the title bar close bos and
min/max/iconify icons

Subject: Opening one stack from another


Hi Everyone,

     I hope you'll excuse the naive question, but I'm having trouble
opening one stack from another.

     I'm trying to create a splash screen with stack X which will then
open stack Y, so I tried this in the stack script of X:

     on openStack
          wait 2 seconds
          go to stack "Y"
     end openStack

     It doesn't work.  Stack Y resides in the same folder as stack X.  I
also tried referring to stack Y as stack "Y.mc", and I included stack Y
in stack X's "Stack files..." as well.  Should I have specified the full
path name of stack Y?

     I've also been reading about modes but am finding the online
documentation a little obtuse.  I'd like the splash screen (stack X) to
appear without a title bar or close box.  How can I do that?

     Regards,

          Greg
