Hunch confirmed: if you look up mode in the Dictionary you'll see the mode is an integer that refers to the current state of the stack.

Stack modes can be made persistent with the style property, but you can also temporarily change the mode of a stack without changing the persistent style property by using the style name as a command, e.g.:

  palette "some stack"

...will open it as a palette, but if its style is toplevel then using:

  open stack "some stack"

...will open it in its style, toplevel.

There is one other way to affect mode, specific to mode 2: that one's cantModify, which can be affected by setting the stack's cantModify property.

So if you run this in the Message Box you should be good to go:

  set the cantmodify of stack "YourStack" to false

Then save it, or you'll be back in this spot again next time you open it.
