Hi Björnke,
the table field problem, I mentioned, was specific to version 2.7.4
not to the current version 2.8.
And sure, I selected manually the table library in my test with no
success.
Actually I only discovered the version 2.7.4 problem, as I didn't
find a way to
solve the described problem with editable fields in version 2.8
standalones.
I thought, as a temporary workaround, I could go back to version 2.7.4.
But then I found out, that there table fields produce an error.
Fields work fine.
In version 2.8 it is the other way:
Tables work fine, fields trigger the said revPaletteObjects error.
Tested on Intel Mac, PowerPC and the Win standalone on XP.
In the IDE all is fine.
I downloaded a Revolution trial version for Windows.
The test result is even more strange. In addition to the editable
field, there has to be an editable table field to reproduce the
revPaletteObjects error.
And sure, I selected manually the table library in the standalone
settings,
saved the stack and saved the standalone.
Unfortunately fields and table fields are exactly what I need in my
standalone.

For table fields to work you need to include the table library. Rev
should do this automatically for you, but often that feature is
missing in action. Often it's enough to open the "standalone
application settings..." then change some value, save the stack,
set the value back to what it was, and then save again. Some times
you need to do it more manually:
To do it manually:
1. Go to the "standalone application settings..." in the file menu.
2. Select the first button at the top: "general"
3. Activate the "Select inclusions for the standalone application"
option button.
4. Select all the Stuff your app needs, the fields can have several
entries selected. (In this case, make sure the "table" entry in the
"Script libraries" field is highlighted.)
5. Save your stack
6. Make a standalone
If that doesn't help, then there's probably a more serious bug.
On an additional note, here (mac os x 10.9.3, rev 2.8) it all works
fine, even without any of the steps taken above, just by doing this:
1. open rev
2. make a stack with a table field
3. save stack
4. build application
5. the application runs, no errors, table field works as expected.
I hope this helped

Hi,
as I didn't find anything related despite extensive search,
would anybody be so kind to test the following, it is done in
seconds:
Save a stack with an editable field as standalone in any 2.8
version IDE.
Now check what happens when you try to open the standalone.
I get the following error no matter if it is a Win standalone or
a Mac standalone:
Type: Function: error in function handler
Object: button "revTable" of group "revLibraries" of card id 1002
of stack ...
Line: set the cCurrentObject of the target to revPaletteObjects()
Line Num: 50
Hint: revPaletteObjects
This happens as soon, as the field gets the openField message
The same test works with version 2.7.4 but ...
If, in version 2.7.4, I place an editable table field onto the stack
I get an error as follows in the standalone as soon as I click
onto the table:
Type: Handler: can't find handler
Object: button "revTable" of group "revLibraries" of card id 1002
of stack ...
Line: send "revUpdateDatabase pObject,txcell,tycell,tNewText" to
pObject
Line Num: 451
Hint: revUpdateDatabase
Can anybody confirm this? If yes, is there a known workaround?
This subject bothers me since several hours and the deadline for
a meeting with the client is coming close. I don't dare thinking
about the case, that this can not be solved. Sure, I could avoid
using fields in the application file and open external stacks
within the
standalone, but in my special case I have good reasons for not to
do so.
Thanks for your attention!
