That definitely sounds like some weird situation or bug. Exit to top is my default exit when I hit some bad condition, and I have never had an app crash on me when I did it. On Wed, Jan 18, 2017 at 9:11 PM, Craig Newman via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > I use exit to

I use exit to top all the time in a standalone. Just habit, since exit "handler" would do in many cases. But never had it quit. Still in v. 6.7 if that makes a difference. Sent from my iPhone > On Jan 18, 2017, at 6:33 PM, Monte Goulding via use-livecode >

Hi Bob, What happens in a standalone if you just "exit " instead of "exit to top" ? Of course that could cause problems in some contexts. Phil Davis On 1/18/17 4:20 PM, Bob Sneidar via use-livecode wrote: That is to say, it QUITS the app. BTW this "feature" is not documented. If it's not

In the IDE if you exit to top, all script execution stops. In a standalone, it wuits the app. I need a way to stop script execution without quitting the app. Is there an easy way, or will I have to return a value all the way up the script hierarchy to tell the initial handler to sop running?
