"Save stack" dialog for each stack opened

Hi. I wanna ask if there is a reason for this.
I have a mainstack with a lot of substack in it.
When I quit Revolution I get the "Save stack" message, and this is normal only for the first time.
But for me it's not normal that I've this message for every substack I've modified.
If I save a mainstack or a substack of it I save the mainstack and ALL its substacks
so why continue to ask to save every modified stack?

This is very annoying in an app with a lot of substack.
I think this is a bug so I ask to solve it before the 4.5 release.

I've this behavior in every platform I use Revolution (Windows, Mac and Linux)

Thank u for all and bye-

Hello,

I have no answer for you excepted you can eventually try to add this handler in your stacks

on closeStack
save this stack
end closeStack

Buongiorno Giovanni,

I think this is "just" a bug in the Rev IDE!
It ALWAYS asks to save a stack, even if you did not modify it in any way.

That's why I still use good ol' MetaCard as my main IDE :)

So adding

Code: Select all

on closeStack
   save this stack
end closeStack
to your stack script won't do anything about it 8)

Is this new behavior for 4.5? I don't see this happening in 4.0 (and would be very annoyed if I did...)

Hi Mark,

no new behavior! This happens to me everytime when I use Rev (at least since version 2.5), which I try to avoid 8)
