What mode is the stack set to? It sounds as if it is either modeless or palette, in which case you can't edit it. This is useful for a Launcher stack as it means it is usable even when you are in edit mode, but you will have to do something different to edit the Launcher itself.

Try right-clicking to bring up the contextual menu and setting the mode to top level so you can edit, then set it back. Alternatively, do all your editing via the Application Browser and then save from there.

Cheers,
Sarah

I recently created a stack ("Launcher.rev") to act like HyperCard's Home
stack. It works OK, but just then, when I went to edit a button, I
discovered that the pointer tool wasn't working. When I choose the pointer
tool (either from the palette or the Tools menu) and click on the button,
instead of selecting it, it CLICKS it (as though the browse tool is
active).


This only happens with this one stack (so far). I can still select objects
by choosing "Card [or Stack] Inspector" from the Object menu and then
finding the object I want from the Selection pop-up menu, or by using the
Application Browser, but why can't I select them directly?
