Re: Edit the script of a stack without opening it

2015-05-24 Thread Graham Samuel
A message for people wanting to suppress messages, of which I am one: take a 
look at bug 15329. Apparently fixed very recently (haven't tried it for a bit).

It usually works for me to click the Messages button in the toolbar (to turn off
messages) before opening the stack. That prevents a crash if the problem is
script related. You can still use the editor and other IDE stacks, and you may
also be able to turn messages back on after the stack has opened.

I didn't even think of that in the panic that I had as LiveCode was
crashing over and over and over.  I like your idea even better.
