I have a stack (with *lot* of stuff) that I think may have become corrupted.
Every time I press command 2 or 3 to move to the previous or next card (Mac OS), the stack changes from toplevel to palette. If I type "go to next card" in the message box, the stack changes from top level to palette. Buttons with handles "go to next card" take me to the palette mode.
The arrow keys will move me from card to card without the change in stack mode.
This happens only with this one stack so it probably is not a corrupted engine.
There is noting in the stack script which should cause this behavior.
Any ideas?
Troubled,

Hi Jim,
What is the content of the 'style' property of the stack ? I was bitten a while back by a stack that had accidentally been set to modeless and kept jumping back to it whenever I opened it. set the style of stack "Foobar" to "toplevel"
Hope this helped,
Jan Schenkel.
Jan,
I was about to reply that I have been resetting the mode to toplevel every time it jumped to palette mode, perhaps a couple of dozen times--every time I changed cards. I was making the change from the pop up contextual sensitive menu (command-control-shift-click on the Mac.)
But I thought I would first follow your advice literally and so I set the style to toplevel in the message box. Eureka! This time it stuck. It turns out that using the menu palette is ephemeral. It only changes the mode temporarily. The mode reverts back to palette after command 3 to go to the next card.
Very odd.
Thank you Jan.
