Actually i got the same behavior after a couple runs from the clean installed MC stack. I tried in vain to put a breakpoint but that command doesn't work for nothing. Anyone has any idea? Im really lost... and nothing in the debugging section seems to work in this case. There is no error in

I think it's a number - you should be able to get it from Apple - but I'll sell you one if you want :) From: Simon Lord [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: WDEF So who here is selling this WDEF? Does it work under OSX? Is it ULTRA stable? And can I buy it now?

The reason you get the strange behavior is the go to card 1 of stack textoid line. The first time I ran your code, I got one window that looked right. Then I closed the window and ran it again, and experienced the behavior you identified. What's happening is that when you close a stack, if the

Window Shape/Style

2002-01-11 Thread Simon Lord
Not getting much of a responce so I'll rephrase the question. Who here can tell me how I can create a stack that uses a custom shape? I need some sort of external to change the shape right? I'd like to be a client of the person that can sell me the solution.
