Hi,

I did save the stack.
So, the recent stacks command sees the stack, but when I click on it
to open it -- the computer says "File not found."

Do you know what folder it was saved in? Have you tried looking there manually in Explorer? If the file was saved at least once, it's still got be be there somewhere. A freeze and/or crash like you had won't delete existing files, though it may have a tilde in front of the name if it didn't save correctly. Also remember the file may have a variation on the file name you expect.

If you do find a file with a tilde in front of the name, just remove the tilde and then open it in LiveCode.


Tonight I'm able to replicate the crashing on two different instances.
So, I've got it to crash 2 out of 4 times.

Open a couple of stacks. Make them new and hardly with anything in
them as this was fatal to a stack I was working on today.
Make a new test button and then go to put in a new script for the button.
on mouseUp
    copy card
end mouseUp

(UNDERSTANDING that COPY CARD IS A BOGUS command.)

Then in the debugger window, click on the green triangle icon arrow
pointing to the right, to debug.
Then the dictionary / bottom part of the screen fills with goodies.
Then the green button turns to orange. (Right, copy card isn't a legal script.)
Then if you click the ORANGE button -- the green one is gone -- the
cursor for me SOMETIMES turns into the WIN blue circle and the screens
and all apps freeze.

This is a very good, precise recipe. Please send it to [email protected]. They will want to know so they can fix it. As painful as it's been for you, you've actually done a good deed by finding it. Maybe you can save others some trouble.
