Hi Alan, i assume it is not on sale anymore. I purchased that external in 2012 and it worked as supposed. But with newer LC and iOS SDK it did not work anymore. I contacted Maarten and he send me the source code, so i could compile it with newer xCode version. I was able to, but was not success

It doesn’t work in the IDE. I tried it. I set a checkpoint on the first line of that very handler, and I got the save dialog before the handler was triggered, which is why I put it in the frontScript. Besides, in the frontScript, it works no matter which stack or substack I close. This is import

Best Practice: Prevent Substacks from Triggering Main Stack Scripts

If you put any preopenstack, resizestack, close stack etc. script in the mainstack script.. these will be triggered by the same action in a substack. What is the best way to avoid this? I just moved all those to the main background group of the main stack, but I'm not happy with that architect

Re: Best Practice: Prevent Substacks from Triggering Main Stack Scripts

If you can do it, the easiest way is to place all your handlers in the card script of the first card of your main stack. All the handlers will be triggered by the main stack, but not the substacks. If you must place your handlers in the stack script, you can compare the name of the owner of th
