Dear List,
Posted this back in June. Got no reply. But am posting gain, in hopes.
In short, one of my more convoluted Rev creations keeps crashing
when some of its stacks close.
It's a combination of stacks. Here are the pieces:
- standalone-stack (holds the engine)
- central-stack (for game-stack selection)
- game-stacks (a myriad of these, some of them with substacks)
Crashes happen when a game-stack is closed to return to the central-stack.
Moreso for some game-stacks than others.
I double checked that every stack, substack, and card has a
preopen/open/close handler, even if this is empty.
I thought it may be a memory issue, cause the game-stack that almost
always crashes has many URL-referenced image objects and runs on older
Win machines. However, I tested on a newer machine with ample memory
and cpu power, but still get crashes.
Below is an outline of the scripted inter-relation between stacks. Perhaps
someone will spot something I've overlooked
Thank you.

close this stack -- i.e., NAVIGATION-SUBSTACK... should I
name the stack explicitly here?
