Hi Bob,

Sure, it's easy to make a mainstack a substack of another.

Go to your stack property inspector of the main stack you wish to make a substack of another. Make sure you're at the 'Basic Properties' section.

There's a option button named 'mainStack'. Just click on it and select the new mainstack you want for this stack and it's done for you.

See below for other answers.

best,
Chipp

Hi,

Having a blast with RunRev... in two ways at least: lots of fun, and shooting myself in the foot

So I made a main stack and got it working quite nicely. I've grown attached to it even.

Now I am coming to realise that this was something of a mistake. I should have made a dummy stack as the main stack and done my work in a substack. Next time for sure.

So I read in the documentation "Changing a stack's mainStack property moves it into the same file as the specified main stack. The stack becomes a substack of the specified mainStack."

Unless I'm doing something wrong -- and this is a distinct possibility -- then this isn't precisely correct. This doesn't do much when the stack you are trying to change the mainStack property of is itself a main stack. In fact it doesn't seem to do anything.

So, barring some error in what I'm trying to do, is there some other way to do this? I can't quite find answers in the documentation.

Can you demote a main stack?

Can you copy a main stack to a substack?

Can you move a card from one stack to another?

copy card 1 of stack "fred" to stack "sam"

Can you duplicate stacks?

clone stack "fred"

Can you duplicate cards?

clone card "myCard" of stack "fred"

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
