The filename of the stack should include the volume name.

Replace carriage returns with numToChar(11). This is a soft return which shows a blank line but treats the text as a single paragraph. Note that if you need to count lines, it will report the both visible paragraphs as a single line.

I should note that I didn't even test my suggestion so I'm not due for any credit yet.

Here's another untested idea. Tooltips are removed on mouseleave, so try this:

I did a quick look at the requirements and I think these probably relate to the main functions of your app, which I think does music playback, right? The timestamp one specifically mentions audio playback calculations. If your app stores any data on the device, that would explain the diskspace requi...

What we should be looking for instead is what explains the surge in beginner numbers between 2006 and 2013. I wonder if it has something to do with Supercard's limitations. Also, devoted HC users were starting to realize their Macs would no longer support their HC stacks. I had a lot of conversion ...

I suspect the problem isn't corruption, but if the new stacks fail in the same way then I'd be happy to take a look at them and see if I can find the problem. Or send them now if you want to avoid reproducing everything.

Not lucky. Reasonable and logical, like a good programmer. Congratulations.

When you made the substack into a mainstack, did you also save the original mainstack? If not, then the substack may still be there. I believe LC moves the substack out to a new mainstack and deletes the one embedded in the first mainstack, but if you don't save it the substack will remain. Try this...

You've probably looked at this but just in case: https://lessons.livecode.com/a/1770871- ... -checklist

There used to be a lesson on causes of the error you're getting but I couldn't find it.

There is no syntax error in the reported statement. Can we see the whole handler that opens the second stack?

It may be that LC is looking for the stack in the defaultfolder, which is normally LC's application folder. But in that case I'd expect a "can't find stack" error.

She was not a well person. I think many of us received unfounded accusations about imagined offenses.

The dictionary suggests using selectionChanged to catch clicks in an unlocked field.

Do you want to delete a line when the user clicks it? The clickline function will tell you which line was clicked so you won't need a dialog. See "clickline" in the dictionary.

LC finds words by looking for spaces between words. If there is no space after a bracket then LC thinks the bracket is part of the word. I'm not sure if this will work, but try "find trueword" instead of "find word". It isn't in the dictionary but it might work. The keyword "trueword" ignores punctu...
