Rob,

try the old finder duplicate file feature! 
Just remember that RR or MC can't handle two stacks with the same name!

        Subject:        Control Ids & Ordinals of Cloned Stacks

.


Hi All,

Yesterday I was surprised to find that the ids & ordinals of the menu 
buttons and other controls of a cloned stack were not the same as 
those in the stack it was cloned from.  (At least not always, if it 
seems to work for you, try modifying the order of the controls in the 
source stack before cloning it.)

Apparently, if one uses control id references in stack handlers, one 
must be sure never to clone the stack.

I reference menu buttons by id rather than name to support 
application translatability.  I have had to change the references 
from "button id [the id]" to "button [ordinal] of group "myMenubar" 
in stacks that can be cloned (plain "button [ordinal]" also resolves 
to different controls in the original & cloned stacks).

It seems to me that, ideally, a cloned stack should be identical to 
the stack from which it was cloned.  If you are expecting this 
behavior, be aware it isn't always so.
