You are saving the new mainstack, then opening *that* file, not the old file housing the mainstack you are moving, right?

Basically, each file represents a specific mainstack and its associated substacks.

If you have mainstack A in file A.rev and mainstack B in file B.rev, then make B a substack of A, save A into A.rev, and open B.rev, file B.rev was never changed during the previous process, so B.rev still opens with B as a mainstack...

Make sure you are opening your equivalent of A.rev, not B.rev, when you are doing this testing.

Hi Bob,

Sure, it's easy to make a mainstack a substack of another.

Go to your stack property inspector of the main stack you wish to make a substack of another. Make sure you're at the 'Basic Properties' section.

There's a option button named 'mainStack'. Just click on it and select the new mainstack you want for this stack and it's done for you.

I've done this at least a dozen times now. I can set the mainstack option button to the other mainstack. If I save, it reverts back. Change the mainstack again, click on the other mainstack then back on the one I just changed and it reverts back. Basically, I can't get the change in mainstack to stick.

Actually, I just tried it a couple of more times. Thought I'd see what the application browser might tell me. It seems that I had an empty substack defined on the mainstack I was trying to move. Once I got rid of that, this worked.

OK, I'm set now. Thanks.


See below for other answers.

Thanks, I'm going to have to get used to this running of scripts to modify things.

Cheers,
Bob


best,
Chipp

Hi,
Having a blast with RunRev... in two ways at least: lots of fun, and shooting myself in the foot So I made a main stack and got it working quite nicely. I've grown attached to it even. Now I am coming to realise that this was something of a mistake. I should have made a dummy stack as the main stack and done my work in a substack. Next time for sure. So I read in the documentation "Changing a stack's mainStack property moves it into the same file as the specified main stack. The stack becomes a substack of the specified mainStack." Unless I'm doing something wrong -- and this is a distinct possibility -- then this isn't precisely correct. This doesn't do much when the stack you are trying to change the mainStack property of is itself a main stack. In fact it doesn't seem to do anything. So, barring some error in what I'm trying to do, is there some other way to do this? I can't quite find answers in the documentation.
Can you demote a main stack?
Can you copy a main stack to a substack?
Can you move a card from one stack to another?

copy card 1 of stack "fred" to stack "sam"
Can you duplicate stacks?

clone stack "fred"
Can you duplicate cards?

clone card "myCard" of stack "fred"
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
