Unfortunate to see complication after complication pile up from the IDE's insistence that stacks with the same name should not be in memory at the same time.

As we've discussed earlier, the engine does not appear to have such a limitation for most operations.

The real issue at the root of all this is the subset of actions performed on stacks with the same name affecting the wrong stack to due an easily-fixable limitation in how topstack is derived:

If the more complete algo employed in the FixedTopStack function provided in comment #1 there were implemented in the engine's stack topstack referencing, so many workflow limitations unique to LiveCode would go away....
