Hi Tom, Each time when you save a stack, its location is saved as part of the document. When the stack is opened on a different machine, it will open in the same location.
Some stacks have a script that changes the location. A script may move a stack window to the a particular location in the preOpenStack script, which makes it appear as if the location saved in the stack file is ignored. Because stacks that are part of a standalone application can't be saved, a preferences file is needed to store the location. A closeStack handler can write the location of a stack to a preferences file and a preOpenStack handler would read the location from the preferences script and set the location of the stack before it appears on screen. IDE stacks are not part of a standalone and should not need such a preferences file, but modern operating systems may not allow limited users to save IDE stacks because they are in the applications folder. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Use Color Converter to convert CMYK, RGB, RAL, XYZ, H.Lab and other colour spaces. http://www.color-converter.com We have time for new software development projects.
