I have noticed an issue where I have a perfectly running Rev project and then when I build a standalone from it, parts of the script suddenly fail. For example, I seem to have trouble being able to "set the script" of a stack in a standalone.
See the scriptlimits. This is Revolution's contribution to the contemporary practice of limiting software functionality in order to protect commercial interests. Basically it stops users doing what Runtime did - using the product to create a competing product. Sorry. Usually there are alternative approaches, albeit less convenient perhaps.
Similarly, it looks like I cannot copy images from one substack to another in a standalone. Both of these tasks are completely possible in a pre-built rev project. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm sure I'm missing something.
I think you should be able to do this, but you would not be able to save the result, as a standalone cannot save itself, and therefore you cannot save its substacks either.
If you want to save a stack, it must be independent of the standalone. Many of us create standalones that consist only of the splash screen and minimal startup code, which is responsible for loading the external stacks that contain the application logic and (sometimes) data.
