Just thought I'd save someone else days of searching
and experimenting by handing out this tip
Loading externals has been iffy for more than one of my projects, and remains a perpetual problem. I've found that externals will load fine on my machine, but not on a client's machine with an identical setup. And using externals from a substack or a separate stack, as you found, doesn't always work either. My results with externals have been frustrating.
I've entered an enhancement request into Bugzilla asking that Rev add a command that will dynamically load externals via script. This would circumvent all the various problems many of us are having, because we could choose to load the platform-specific external as needed instead of relying on the current setup which depends on many factors, such as the defaultFolder and some kind of magic when a stack opens.
Tuviah has agreed to add this capability in a future version -- which is great news for me, and which should fix the problem for most of us once and for all. I hope it gets added soon.
