I had similar problems, and worse performance, using "send...to".
What kinds of problems?
I am using a stack with "start using" and then in the "on libraryStack"
handler I insert scripts into the front and back. I can call handlers in these
scripts from the main (non library) stack without a problem, but messages
generated in these scripts never reach the original stack, they seem to be
only passed through the library stack itself.
Am I going about this in the wrong way? I'd like to extend the message path to
have custom events pass through the stack that is using the library.
I have to make some guesses here about your needs.
If you have several stacks that might be using the library, each can supply to the library the long id of itself like this:
openGadget GadgetNumber, the long id of me
The library can send responses back to the saved long id like this:
send "gadgetIsOpened gadgetNum" to savedLongID in 0 seconds
Use the 0 seconds to allow it to drop through the path and to allow for an undefined handler.
You can eventually expand this to have arrays to keep track of multiple gadgets.
If you have only one stack that is the customer, then you might consider using topStack instead of passing the long ID.
Does this work, or are there problems with this?
