I am getting confused with "darker tab is the active one”.
In system preferences/Desktop & Screen Saver as an example.
If you click on the Screen Saver Tab:
1. The text of the Screen Saver Tab is white and it’s background is blue.
2. The text of the Desktop Tab is black and it’s background is wh
It's been a long time since I saw anything on the syntax extension
functionality, but my recollection was that it was supposed to be the
all-singing, all-dancing wonder of the universe -- meaning that if I wanted
to use a C-like dot-notation (I don't, usually) that would be easy to
build. And that
It’s very interesting because Safari, Firefox, Excell, most Mac applications
have lighter colored tabs for the active tab. The tabs in the Systems
Preferences work so the darker tab is the active one. Seems, with Safari at
least, Apple is inconsistent.

I would guess this is happening because the behavior of displaying a modal
stack is based on some UI convention of centering modal dialogs on the screen.
The answer dialog behaves this way.
One way to work around this is to use a suspendStack handler in the main stack
that opens the model, lik

Also, this is happening in the ide.

Just a word of thanks to all who have responded to this thread which I
started a few days ago.
Richmond - I've got the same crash results on the Mac side.
Roger - your your suggestion is turning out to be promising. I've
gotten in touch with Thierry and I may have a Windows solution through
I also use "close this stack" from the message box.

In addition the text in the button is offset far to much towards the bottom of
the tab.
There is a bug report for this one but it has not been incorporated into the
last release.

Except when the window is inactive the colours of the tab are not dimmed.
Is it expected in LiveCode that you disable the tabbed control?

That only happens in the IDE, you can lock messages before quitting. Or, what
I usually do from the message box: delete this stack. (Or you can use the menu
option to remove from memory.) Then a regular quit doesn't ask.

Got your logger stack. I’m in a huge crunch right now, so I need to just go
ahead and delete my quit button, and use the toolbar menu to quit, for a bit.

Any open drivers also prevent quitting, or it used to.

My perennial question is, how do I quit without saving the stack or even

Looks like I was wrong on this one. In the OSX Preferences window, the active
tab is set to a dark grey, while the inactive tabs are light grey. In Safari,
Firefox, and other programs, the active tab is light and the inactive tabs are
darker. Weird. Oh well, my bad. The Tabbed control in Liveco
