Hi Rob,

It has been a while since we 'talked'.  Thanks for you input.

Hi Bob,

I have a substack to create a menubar. Its card  consists of a group
of 14 menu btns
each with their own icon ids and names. The size of the group is the
same as the size of the stack (800/45).  The stack doesn't have a
menubar of its own.

[snip]

Upon creating a standalone, only the btn names appear but  clicking on
a btn name,
the icon appears with it's btn name.

I presume the icon images reside in the substack (Y/N?).

Icons reside in another substack. start using stack "Images" is in openstack
handler of the menubar stack.

It should be noted, as I indicated in my original message, that if I use the icons without btns, the icons show up in the standalone. With btns, the btn name appears in the middle of the window. When the name is clicked, the name drops down and the icon appears as it should with the btn name. Don't understand the shift in appearance. The height of the btns fit ok into the stack height as shown that it works in development.

I also tried different style for the btns.  No help with this either.

As a last resort, I would have to have two substacks. One with the icons and the other with names of the icon. Rather not go that way.

When does the standalone main stack explicitly open the substack?

Upon opening the standalone, the splash screen is shown followed by an About followed by a Reminder substack. A btn handler on the Reminder card has
go stack "BaseMenu", close stack "Reminder".

What happens if the following handler is in the substack stack script?:

        on preOpenStack
                repeat with x = 1 to the number of buttons
                        set the icon of button x to (the icon of button x)
                end repeat
        end preOpenStack

No help with the above handler.  Any other suggestions?

Regards ... Bob
