I installed LC 8.1.10 on OSX 10.12.6 Sierra (Italian) and OSX 10.7.5 Lion (english), using VMware fusion, in order to test my standalone.
I noticed subtle but annoying differences, both on LC IDE and in the standalone.
1 -breakpoint on the main "preopenstack". IDE
Sierra: stop the script and open the script editor (as is supposed to)
Lion: stops the script, but the editor stay hidden: you must click on the Finder screen and then on LC in order to show it
2 -Document icons and Document association. Standalone
Sierra: the standalone does not associate documents and does not set the document icon
Lion: works fine
3 - Enable/disable menu btn "Help", from script or using the property inspector. IDE and Standalone
Sierra: works fine
Lion: does not work: setting on or off the "disabled" btn on the property inspector does not change the enable/disable of the "help" menu
4 - Geometry on the property inspector. IDE and Standalone
Sierra: works fine
Lion: the same stack does not preserve geometry (disappears)
I wonder how many more problems will I find.
So the point is:
- does LC Mac Engine 8.1.10 really support up to OSX Lion ?
- if I give up supporting past OS system (sigh), how do you fix the document association and icon in Sierra?

Should different OSX versions be handled differently?
