stack inspector 'blank' - have I re-set something?

I just updated from 3.5.0 -gm-1 to gm-2 whist I had a stack open, and now that stack won't show me the stack inspector (or rather, the stack inspector is an empty looking rectangular window), and both pointer (edit) and browser (run) tools (for that stack) act a browser (run) tools ONLY.

Also, the File menuitem for standalone applications is grayed out (as are a few others).

Have I accidentally reset something of that stack's settings or somehow 'damaged' some Rev. settings?

Any ideas would be appreciated, as I'd like to continue working on that stack, rather than re-starting it afresh (I've tried saving a second copy in a different location in case it would reset some things, but still no success).

check the style and mode of the stack. most likely the updater accidentally set your stack's style, instead of another one.

Thanks for that... very much appreciated, and helped far more than may at first appear!

I fiddled around a while, but your hint gave me enough to work it out in a few minutes, thanks also to section 4.2.5 of the manual to which it lead.

The command I used was:

set cantModify of this stack to false
