Re: Extra Title Bar in All Stacks
"System wide" ?? I tried a dozen different apps, include Apple's own Pages, Numbers and Notes etc. *none* of them respond to cmd-shift-T to make tabbed windows… the only "system-wide" is the Finder. Adding an Apple-Mac Only Finder feature to LC that OS X does not even implement this in it's other applications and where, all other apps make use of cmd-shift-T for some other function in that particular app, does it make sense to try to emulate the Mac Finder in LC Windows? If HQ is trying to decide if this is useful enough to spend time making it work; perhaps a better decision is: disable and forget it, so that we are not "harassed" by double title bars, ever. Will any Mac User shed a tear here if this future enhancement is crossed off the list?

Re: Extra Title Bar in All Stacks
This came up a while ago, and Colin Holgate pointed out that it comes from a System Preference setting for the Dock (go figure!). Go to the Apple Menu, open System Preferences and choose the Dock icon. Look at the fifth item down the window and you’ll see: Prefer tabs when opening documents: Always | In Full Screen Only | Manually If you set this to “Always” you will see the Tab Bars appear in resizable LC windows. If it’s set to "In Full Screen Only”, then the tabs will appear if you create a new stack while your current stack or window is open in full screen mode.

Re: Extra Title Bar in All Stacks
confirmed. Create new stack (leave it untitled) … I am getting a second "tab bar" under the *real* title bar of the new stack Create second new stack Hmmm, yes, fascinating, I can drag the title bar slowly onto the first stack and let go Now I have Untitled 2 # top of window untitled 1 * | Untitled 2 *# two tabs -- Nothing in the view menu relatedt to tabs. -- turn off resizeable in untitled 2 and the stack "jumps" out to a new window. OK, none of my stacks in this project need to be resizeable I can live with it, but a) why would it appear suddently and b) why doesn't it go away after delete settings? Is there another place where the engine is writing prefs or settings that we don't know about? It wasn't happening yesterday, in stacks that *were* resizeable. Something I did today triggered this new behavior.

Re: Extra Title Bar in All Stacks
It’s a standard Sierra feature that LiveCode doesn’t fully support yet. The View menu is supposed to have a Show Tab Bar menu item, which would hide the tab bar part of the window. The option is there sometimes, so if you’re lucky enough to see it you can deselect it. If the tab bar is showing you can drag one stack’s tab bar to another stack’s tab bar to dock them together.

Re: Extra Title Bar in All Stacks
Further testing: This is only occurring on stacks with "resize" set to true.. if I uncheck that the second title bar disappears. My gut says it has something to do with the "decorations" property of stacks being corrupted.
