Thanks Jacqueline, but the stacks differ in dimension, both from the
mainstack and each other.

Yes, that "unawareness" factor is what I'm after.
Actually Trevor Devore (in his Application Framework master class)
recommends breaking a project into several substacks as a way to manage
large projects.

If that is so important why do you bother to have a substack
Nicolas,
If you find it nice, you could also add a visual effect (or two,) :

lock screen
set the visible of this stack to false
go to cd 1 of stack "theMainStack"

Thanks André. The "lock screen" did the trick.

Bonjour Nicolas,
Is the following doing what your are expecting :
lock screen
hide stack "theMainStack"
go to cd 1 of stack "theMainStack"
--wait 1 milliseconds
open stack "theSubStack"

Chris,
I just reread your post and think that if this script 'used' to work
prior to 3.0 then either it is a bug or maybe 3.0 changed the way it
handles the substacks function.
You might want to enter a bug report on this.

This might be a better approach for the repeat loop I mentioned in the

As far as your actual problem maybe it is better to set the substacks

Hi Dave,
Possibly, the problem is that although you hide the substack, it is
still open and its style is still modal. Because it is modal, it
probably blocks sent messages. Can't you just close the stack or use
