Jacqueline, I do think that there is a timeing issue that you have to be
aware of if you a calling revloadedstacks.
But something strange _IS_ going on.
Please create a stack and enter the script below into the stack script
and save the stack and quit livecode. Doubleclick on the stack icon.
Things are working correctly for me. 7.0.0, (since 7.0.1 still won't
install) When starting up the stack and IDE by opening the stack,false is
first. After the IDE is fully open, allowinterupts seems to always be true
for me.
Not managing to duplicate the problem so far. I did adjust things so

Mike,
Your plugin suggestion was a good one. When I removed them all I am
now getting the expected behavior.
I now need to add them back in one at a time to find the one that is not
setting allowinterrupts to true.
It does seem that allowinterupts is the correct vehicle to tell when the
I'm still not sure you need to mess with any of this. What does your script
need to do when the IDE finishes loading?

This should help you see the problem I was trying to solve: Consider the
following code:
local ctr
on openstack
put OpenStack cr
put the allowinterrupts cr after msg
try
put revloadedstacks() cr after msg
catch err
put revloadedstack not found cr err cr after

No suggestions really, because i'm not sure whats going on (he says, as he
gets ready to make suggestions anyway).
It seems that since all the plugins are a part of the sequence in that
handler I mentioned, and that plugins are loaded before the allowinterupts
is set, it seems that you'd end up
Jacqueline gave me a really slick solution to my problem off list. He is
what I am going to use in the next release of the MasterLibrary:
on preopenstack
send Mark_IDE_done to me in 2 ticks
go to cd Splash
end preopenstack
on Mark_IDE_done
try
get revloadedstacks()
Jacqueline and Mike, thanks for you help with this.
Just to clarify, I am trying to solve the problem in the environment
where livecode is not running and the user double clicks on the
MasterLibrary stack. This is not a standalone program but a stack that
is being started from the desktop.
I'm confused. LiveCode knows how to open a stack as part of its startup
routine. Since card 1 is always opened first, a preopenstack handler there
will always fire and you can do your setup there from that card without
worrying about timing.

Resumestack shouldn't be sent normally when a stack opens. There's a

It looks like the IDE load order is this:

I have tried that but I need to process the resumeStack message which

How can you tell when the IDE is done loading? I am trying to figure
out how to have the initialization of my app happen _after_ all of the
IDE stacks have loaded. When my stack is double clicked from the
desktop, my initialization code calls revloadedStacks() before the IDE
has loaded it
