You'd think it should work since you followed the lesson exactly. But
try putting the launcher stack in use before you close it. That will
keep its resources available. Closing a stack generally removes it from
the message path.

Hi All,
I’m working for the first time with the “launcher” stack process to be able to
save in a livecode stack.
OSX 10.10.5 and LC 7.1.1
I’ve followed this lesson:
How do I save custom properties in a standalone application?
http://lessons.livecode.com/m/4071/l/17375-how-do-i-save-custom-properties-in-a-standalone-application
And have created a “launch” stack and “main” stack as outlined. So, this code
is in the launcher:
on openStack
open stack "Main Application.livecode"
close stack "Launcher"
end openStack
And, in the main stack I have this code
on closeStack
save this stack
pass closeStack
end closeStack
The “main” stack opens just fine… But, I’ve run into a couple bumps for which
I haven’t found an answer in the lists or forum.
First, my “answer” calls don’t work when I open the “main” stack from the
launcher. They work just fine in the IDE. Nothing appears at all. The script
does run as if the “answer” call isn’t there… no error, etc.
Second, when I “quit” the launcher the changes made to the “main” stack are not
saved. However, when I close by clicking the “red” dot of the “main” stack, the
changes are saved.
Finally, is it possible to place the “main” stack in the OSX package rather
than having the stack in the same folder as the launcher standalone?
be well,
randy
