lazy newbie

It's taken me forever to get my HC stacks ready to run in Rev, because, among other reasons, I made heavy use of the popup button external provided by Nine to Five software, with their ancient Reports product. This was before popup buttons were native to hyperCard. The 9 to 5 popups don't work quite the same way as native HC popups. And of course, while re-writing the scripts one always has good ideas about how to improve them -- and the hours, days and weeks go by.

I'm almost done. This has been time-consuming, so Rev is still mysterious. Haven't had time for homework.

When I'm done with all this stuff, do I need to convert my backgrounds to sub-stacks?

If I open my stacks in Rev (they will open -- I've tried it -- I've paid for Dreamcard on three platforms), does Rev automatically re-define my backgrounds as substacks? If so, does Rev do that correctly?

I know there are conversion help sites and stuff. I thought I'd skip the middleman and go straight to the source, at least on this key point. Don't worry, I will do some of my own homework... or retain Jacque, or a bit of both.

Thanks in advance,


Tim Miller
