Good catch, Gabe. my menubar is set to the bottom MBP display, and didn’t think
to mess with the menubar in the top display.
Thanks,

Oh, I think I see what the difference is: The screenRects will be in a
different order depending on which screen the menubar is set to. So, when
the menubar is set to the top screen, your script sends stack "revMenubar"
to the bottom screen. I was running with the menubar set to be on the top
Yeah, "Displays have separate Spaces" is unchecked. Yes, your script is
moving stack "revMenubar" to near the top of the bottom screen when the top
and bottom screen are left-aligned, but since it is on the bottom screen
(below stacks on the top screen) the stacks above it on the top screen do
not
Huh . . . this is hard to understand since the script toggles revMenubar
precisely to the top of one monitor or the other based on returned screenRects.
And, you unchecked the “Displays have separate Spaces” in the Mission Control
System Prefs?

If I were to do everything on the bottom screen, it would work. But to use
stacks on the top screen, stack "revMenubar" needs to go to the top of the
top screen, it appears. (At least in LC 9.6.1)

Sorry Roger,
I was replying to the email thread--- I clicked reply on your message
because it was the last one in my list here.
However, I just tried your script and it looks like it isn't working. I
have an external screen positioned above my laptop and it ran into the same

Gabe, before delving deeply into your message, are you saying that my script
does not work for you?

Also, the point of my previous email is that stack "revMenubar" seems to
move around sometimes when you change multi-monitor configurations on Mac,
which sets up the conditions for this issue.

I've discovered that LiveCode (at least LC 9.6.1) seems to force the
reported top of a manually-moved stack to be the bottom of stack
"revMenubar" + 20, if the stack is overlapping revMenubar (even if
revMenubar is not visible), even if the visual top of the stack is higher
than that. All mouse
Hi Fred et al,
I use the following script to switch the monitor I wish to use for the
revmenubar and revTools and then position pallets like my own rTools and
tmAlign3. It is working quite nicely for me with my external monitor positioned
above my MBP and “Displays have separate spaces”

Hi Roger
Thanks, I’ll try that. However then I will have to deal with reprogramming the
wetware and the muscle memory which at my age may be a much more difficult
process. The ole wetware ain’t as moist and flexible as it once was ;-)

Use the plural of Screenrect … Screenrects. This returns a Screenrect for each
monitor connected.

I have the same setup . . . second monitor on top of my MBP. I solved the
