Hi Peter,
No, you don't need to include the operating system's path to the stack
file. For example, the following is a correct reference for a
behavior: button id 1015 of stack "Untitled 1"
You can keep one copy of your stack with parent objects on your hard
disk and add this stack to the stackfiles property of the mainstack of
your project. When you build the standalone, the stack will be copied
into your standalone and above reference will still work.

I'm trying to figure out the best way to make a library of behavior
buttons available to multiple applications.
I originally developed the library as a substack of my application
but would now like to move it to a separate .rev file and refer to
it from other applications. Seems like that gives me a single
maintenance point - fix any behavior problems in the library and
it's automatically fixed in all applications.
However, it's feeling like this isn't a practical solution. As I
understand it, the behavior property of an object uses the long id
of the button it refers to and I think the long id includes the
operating system path to the .rev file that the button is in.
Just for development purposes, I have three different folders I use
- one for code and test, another for QA, and anther for the final
application. SO if I set the behavior to point to my library of
behaviors in the code and test folder, then move the app's .rev file
to the QA folder, the behavior properties will still point to the
behavior library of in the code and test folder. And so on.
I'm sure there much more experienced users than me out there who
have run into this problem and hoping they can share how they dealt
with it. Only thing I can think of is a script that runs during
installtion to go find all controls with a behavior property set and
change it to the correct one.
