Hi Joe,
You can save and open stacks with the same standalone. There is no
need for a player. As Richard states, you can use these stacks as
documents, in case you need to save custom properties and objects for
instance. You can even give these stacks their own extension or file

Hi Joe,
I would start with a template stack. When your standalone starts up,
it should immediately clone the template and give it a name. For

When the user quits or chooses the Save menu item from the File menu,

Well, my intuition about not closing the stack was correct, but it

I know I can always view things larger using Command/Option +, but

advantages of using the splash screen approach is that you can build
