Ah. Finally my point. The difference is or was (with Metacard or hypercard or other Xtalks) that standalones *were not* the assumed end result. Rather, the point is/was to produce *stacks*. IDEs that fail to function or require standalones to provide full functionality violate the whole premise of Xtalks. Unfortunately, *unlike Metacard*, RR suffers from exactly that disability, which is why a very tiny minority of us prefer the Metacard IDE. Contrary to the hype, it is not *just* a difference in IDEs, but a true difference in philosophy.
That said, *if* your point in using RR is to develop standalones, I fail to understand the complaint. Yes it doesn't dance well, but like the dancing bear, one should be impressed that the IDE dances at all.
Fair enough... I guess my question would be- without a "player" application, does ANYONE distribute stacks and not standalones to a paying client that would care about the IDE issues in this thread? My (perhaps naive) assumption is that either your finished product goes to a client that doesn't want or need a development environment with it, or else you must be using it in a suitable environment where minor IDE eccentrics wouldn't be a big deal...
