> 1 (& 2). How do I get the Quit and Preferences Menu Items to workcorrectly on MacOS Classic and X?
It took me a while to figure this one out... but, here's what works for me. Put this in the stack script of your main stack (of course change "someStack" to your stack's name):
on appleEvent aeClass,aeID if aeClass & aeID = "aevtpref" then send "menuPick" && "Preferences..." to btn "Edit" of stack "someStack" else if aeClass & aeID = "aevtquit" then send "menuPick" && "Quit" to btn "File" of stack "someStack" end if end appleEvent
Thanks a lot, I'll give this a try. But is there no document that describes how to do this? Also why is the readme file wrong??
This of course, will work in a standalone.
If I then make a standalone (with the CheckBox initially unchecked) and then run it and then click the checkbox so it's checked and press OK, when I next load the Stack, should the Checkbox be on or off?
It will be off. In a standalone, this won't work -- you can't save a stack that is a standalone - period. But, you can:
(1) save and load the state of a checkbox (or other controls) - this is my personal preference. (2) have your standalone open a stack file. Now it can be saved.
How do I handle this? Specifically how do I:
1) Check if I am running as a Standalone or under the RunRev IDE.
2) If running under the RunRev IDE, I take it I can save as I have been doing, although it doesn't seem to make any difference whether I execute a "save this stack" or not. In other words if I have one checkbox in a stack, the state of that checkbox gets saved whether or not I execute the "save stack" command. Is this the correct action? How can I NOT save the stack (in this case because the Cancel button was pressed).
3) If running as Standalone, I am guessing that I can issue a "save this stack as FilePathName" command which will save it into the File Name and Path specified. But when the Standalone App is re-launched, how do I use the contents of the saved stack as the current data.
Again, is any of the documented anywhere? It seems like such a common thing to want to do.
Thanks a lot for any Help. All the Best Dave _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
