Well now it's one of the ones that is assigned at startup - it wasn't when I started this thread. I'm pretty sure this all has to do with the engine's resolution of behavior references happening before all stacks are loaded.
I have all my behaviors in a separate mainstack which is opened in a preOpenCard handler of the stack whose controls reference the behaviors. It appears even preOpenCard doesn't happen soon enough to allow the engine to resolve the behavior references. I wonder if putting a reference to the behaviors stack in the application stack's stackFiles property would fix this. I will try and post the result. On Wed, Jul 22, 2015 at 11:22 AM J.
