I’m not sure if the following 2 problems were addressed in the forum, but hope that someone can help: I updated from Rev 2.7.4 to Rev 2.9.0 and then made a few small changes to a stack I had created with Rev 2.7.4. The stack was working fine under 2.7.4 (I’ m working on a Mac desktop with OS X 10.4.11 with 8 mg RAM). The following problems then occurred:
I have a folder that nests both a stack and a movie folder. The movies in the movie folder are referred to in the stack through the Quicktime player on one of the cards. I put the file path to the movie in the Quicktime player Property Inspector. In Rev 2.7.4, I simply left the long absolute path to the movie within the player, never changing it. For some reason, this still worked well in the standalone, even when the standalone was run on a different Mac or Windows (Vista) computer. The movies showed up. In Rev 2.9.0, however, the long absolute path won’t work in the standalone on the other computers. I have to modify the absolute path to convert it to the short relative path format. While this method now works in the standalone, it doesn’t work in the stack itself. As soon as I create the short relative path, the Quicktime player goes blank in the stack (whether using 2.7.4 or 2.9.0). Is this a significant change in the way Rev 2.9.0 works? Not only that, the stack itself now takes a long time to load up (several minutes) when it is opened, and so does the standalone, whether on Mac or Windows. Thus there are two problems: 1. The absolute and relative paths appear to act differently in 2.7.4 than in 2.9.0. (the 2.74 way was more desirable since one didn’t have to shorten the absolute path to create the standalone). 2. After working with the stack in 2.9.0 it appears that the stack and standalone take a lot longer to open than it did when I just had 2.7.4. Now, if I go back to using 2.7.4 to build a standalone on the same stack that was altered in 2.9.0, it too is now associated with a long opening time of the both the stack and standalone. (The stack is structured as one Mainstack and 4 substacks. The only change I made was adding an extra card to the end of each stack). Does the above indicate some intrinsic problem with 2.9.0? Does 2.9.0 somehow damage a stack that previously was created in 2.7.4? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, since I have many stacks created in 2.7.4 and I’m wondering whether or not to continue working with them in 2.9.0. Thanks very much.
