Yes, Chipp sent an announcement yesterday about a new plugin he created for this: ------------- As many of you have read, the file formats are no longer backwards compatible with the new 2.7. Thoughtfully, RunRev provided many of us beta testers with a way to force a stack to revert back to an old file format using an undocumented and unsupported global property. This of course is fraught with potential problems. If you use a newly introduced token in a script, chances are your new stacks would break when opening in a previous version even when using this plugin. But, if you're like me, and you have to go 'back and forth' (for instance our plugins must work in both environments), you really need to be able to do this. So, I wrote this plugin and thought I'd share it with the community. I'm not sure the reason why RR won't publish the global property to make this possible. But, in the meantime, I've written a plugin, which you can place in your 2.7 plugins folder, which will do this. I've password protected the stack so that Rev's secret global prop is still secret, and of course I provide no warranties it will work all the time, but it can be a lifesaver if you're toggling back and forth between apps. I also recommend using our altArchive plugin as well to maintain serialilze archived versions of your stack each time you save. To get the StackFormat plugin, just type into your 2.7 message box and hit return the following: go URL "http://www.gadgetplugins.com/altplugins/StackFormat.rev" Then save it to your plugins folder. That's all there is to it. best, Chipp ----------- HTH, Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software Web site: http://www.sonsothunder.com/ Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
