It seems very common for inspectors to update for the current selection.

LiveCode does this as well, and while it may be more obvious when the selection is a control rather than a card (a card has no selection handles or other visual indicator that it's selected), the behavior is pretty consistent.

And like some other inspector implementations I've seen, LiveCode's can also be locked to a given object, using the icon in the upper-right of the Inspector window.

But of course even the lock option won't help here, since locking to a specific card isn't what's needed here.

All that's needed is to note the title bar of the Inspector whenever you get unexpected results with it.


If I have a card with 1 object situated on it and it is selected
and the inspector for it is  open, and I then make a new object on that
card the inspector changes to take into account the new object.

So . . . why . . .

when I have a card inspector open and I either make a new card or
move to another card does the inspector NOT show the new card, instead
of the stack?

This behaviour seems inconsistent.
