So, I have this command in the stackScript of a stack:
on openStack
palette stack "newTools"
end openStack

I'm obviously missing something.

OR, if the stack isn't known/related to the stack you are currently in:
go to card 999 of stack "Users/Richmond/Stacks/Stupid Q.livecode"
If I put 'palette "XYZ"' in the messageBOx I get a palette.
If I put 'palette "XYZ"' in a stack called "XYZ" insode, say, a mouseUp

That's all rather odd as the text in a button, regardless of what the
