Hi Terrance It appears we have two different default preferences for the number of recent stacks. When a prefs stack is being reset or set for the first time the default will be 30. Otherwise when accessing the list of recent stacks the value defaults to 15 if it isn’t an integer. You can assume 30 is the default unless you do something that sets the cNumRecent of the revPreferences stack to a non-integer. http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=18397 <http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=18397> This is possibly not an issue I’d worry about other than it highlights the need to refactor and document the preferences in the IDE so that all preference access is via a common API, all defaults values are also via a common api and all IDE prefs are documented somewhere. Additionally I’d really like to refactor the GUI at the same time so that it uses a mechanism like the property inspector to build each pane on the fly allowing both simpler maintenance and extensibility by plugin authors.
