Hi Dave, First of all : these Save dialog boxes will only happen in the IDE ; so either demo a stand-alone app or suspend the developmetn environment during the demo. Ok, but I'm having (different) problems with Standalone and just wanted this to work 100% (or as close as possible!) in one

And saving the stack shortly before closing it (but not in the closestack or closestackrequest) does not work? Not sure what you mean by but not in the closestack or closestackrequest. The stack scripts are as follows: on preOpenStack set the destroyStack of this stack to true this is

Hi, Ok more information on this! In the Stack that brings up the Save Dialog, I have taken out the preOpenStack handler (well dummied it, I now just have a beep in it), so no Properties (or anything else) get set at all. The dialog still appears when the Close Box is pressed. I tried this:

Dave, I have this very same problem. Here's what I do... When I get the Do you want to save this Stack? dialog, I simply click Save and move on. It may be a little annoying, but in my opinion, it's not worth spending over 12 hours on. Revolution is an amazing product! I certainly hope you

Hi, Some more info. I did this: From the IDE, saved the Stack. From the Finder, duplicated the Stack. From the IDE, Enter Browse Mode. Called up the offending Stack via the MenuBar. Hit the Close Window Button, get the save stack dialog, say yes. From the IDE, Enter Pointer Mode. Then using a

Dave, Your absolutely right - without question, RR should fix this issue. I guess I'm more lenient about small issues like this. I get upset about the big issues. Several years ago there was a bug in the toolTip property. If you had a toolTip assigned to ANY object, the standalone would crash

David, Sorry you're having so many problems. Here's a couple things to you might try (if you haven't already): 1) Check the prefs - Files Memory. Click the radio button which says Close the file 2) Just a thought, both stacks have different filenames, but do they have different stack names?

Hi Chipp, Thanks for this, I changed the preference (was set to don't close) but it made no difference. Yes, the files have different Stack Names. One other thing I noticed that is odd and it may have something to do with what is going wrong. When I have the Stack Window open in the IDE

Well I'd rather have an 'overactive' IDE that offers to save every time I close a stack, then lose my work because it didn't keep track well enough. As Klaus noted, changing from browse mode to edit mode is enough to trigger the IDE into 'edited' mode. The problem is that it should 100% NOT save

David, I have a plugin called AltClean which will removes the rev the cREVGeneral custom property set from existing stacks. It might help 'reset' your stack (it won't harm it, but you should still always backup your stack before using). You might wish to try it. It's at:

I went digging through the IDE scripts, and found that the global gREVStackSTatus isn' saved inside a custom property or anything ; hence you must be doing something that triggers the change to edited status ; in fact, it's enough to click in a field and not even change anything, to chnge
