Monte: Thanks you got it... the preopenstack handler of the main stack had this:

set the loc of this stack to the screenloc

which of course applied to ALL stacks being opened... so I changed that to just

set the loc of stack "dws Youth" to the screenloc ## the name of the mainstack itself

and now the palette behaves as expected. I can simply set it to the position I want, save the stack and build the standalone and it appears where it should without the necessity of setting it's location.


Thanks

I don't think there's an at modifier for the palette command??? At least
it's not in the docs. If it's a substack you might want to check the
mainstack positioning script isn't getting triggered. don't forget that the
engine opens windows automatically where they were on the last save so you
may not need to position the window with script. It could be it's just a
message path issue.

I am have created a small palette stack with a table of contents in a

If I move the palette and close it, then reopen it by script... it
opens at the screenloc... right on top of the main presentation, dead
center on the screen.

I can't seem to change this behavior. The goal is to get the palette to
open with the top left of its rect just under the topleft of the main
presentation window. Then allow the user to move it off the main
presentation window if he wants to later, but certainly not right on
top over the main window.


case "table of contents"
   palette "toc" at 200,200
