Hi Joe, The problem here is that the Quit menu item in the application menu doesn't trigger any Revolution messages, except for shutdownRequest. After you choose the Quit menu item, it is the operating system that stops the application, not Revolution itself. However, before the operating

Hi Mark, Right now I have some more crucial issues to address, as I mentioned in an earlier email to the list. Once I have those resolved, I may get back to this. Maybe not. (smile) Regardless, thank you for your time. Joe Wilkins On Nov 17, 2010, at 1:05 AM, Mark Schonewille wrote: Hi

Hi all, The Quit item in my apps menu has a Do you want to save Answer Dialog, but in the IDE it is over-ridden by LC with its own version - a sheet. With the standalone I get nothing. It just quits. How come? I guess I must be doing something wrong. Joe Wilkins

Hi Joe, Are you using a Mac? Try the closeStackRequest message in the IDE and the shutdownRequest messages in the standalone. This script http://runrev.info/Save%20Way%20to%20a%20Quit.htm might also help you. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software

Hi Mark, Since I got it to work perfectly, I thought some others might appreciate a snippet! Probably a neater and shorter way of doing this, but what the heck! I suppose I could have just gone for the name of the application, but this is generic enough to handle any stack with any standalone

Joe, Those messages can be cought, but should not be sent. When you click in the closebox, the closeStackRequest is sent. When you choose Quit in the application menu, the shutdownRequest message is sent. The Quit menu item only works on windows! Just to be save, execute the script attached to

Mark, I can't get this to work properly. Frankly, I think something like this should be automatically resolved as part of the Auto script on the Menu Builder. As is, too complicated; plus it doesn't work even implementing your suggestions. I may have made a mistake, but I don't think so. I've
