Answer dialog not showing in Windows 7 ???
Hello All, I am running Windows 7 Home Premium and LiveCode 5.0. I just noticed something and am at a loss... I created two simple stacks; one is a Launcher, and the other is the Main Application. See the following tutorial to see an example: http://lessons.runrev.com/s/lessons/m/4071/l/17375-How-do-I-save-custom-properties-in-a-standalone-application- For the Launcher stack, I created a standalone Windows .exe, and for the Main Application, I left it as a .livecode stack file that is launched by the Launcher.exe program. The standalone Launcher.exe application successfully opens the stack file, but the buttons on the stack file's dialog will not allow an answer dialog to open. For example, a button with the following code is on the Main Application (i.e., the stack file opened by the Launcher): on mouseUp answer Cool! end mouseUp When I click on the button, nothing happens. However, when running the stack within the LiveCode IDE, the button successfully launches the Cool! answer dialog... What am I missing here? I tried running the Launcher.exe as the administrator, but still no go... I also tried compiling using LiveCode 4.6.4, but no go.

Hello Boo (?), In the General tab of the Standalone Application Settings for your standalone (Launcher.exe), click the radio button Select inclusions for the standalone application and then check Answer Dialog. I think what's happening is that, because there is no answer command anywhere in your standalone, the standalone-builder isn't including it. Following that logic, another way around this is to include an answer command in your standalone. In a hidden button, for example. By the way, from similar past experience I've learnt to be careful about relying on LC's icons for buttons. If the button with a particular icon is not in the standalone, that icon will not show on other stacks.
