There is a checkbox in the menu builder called Set as Stack Menu bar. I’m wondering if that is what everyone means by a stack menu? If so, it seems that in order for your application to look and feel like a *real* app, you will need to employ this, at least for some apps. I have never heard of a stack developed in such a way as it becomes the menu for another stack, if that is what was being discussed.
Some time ago, back in the Revolution days, the Menu Builder had some real problems, taking perfectly good menus and screwing them up beyond the ability to recover them, hence many people’s aversion to using it. Nowadays I can say that I use it exclusively, as opposed to rolling my own, with absolutely no issues whatsoever. Others mileage may vary.

I don’t know whether you can build one with the menu builder or not, but what I was looking for was an explanation as to the what, the why and the how. I suppose the how might have included menu builder. When I start a new project I do usually use the menu builder, but menus always need tweaking in my experience, especially cross-platform ones, so I do end up doing lots of stuff outside that context. Maybe you didn’t want your question answered - if so, sorry for the bandwidth!
