Hi Jacque
I’m sorry I haven’t been following this whole thread so forgive me if my
responses have already been covered.

Don't you mean cantModify here?
toplevel stacks that are ide stacks are forced to toplevel locked (mode 2). We
determine this through a stack custom property `ideOverride`. If that is true
when loading the stack from disk then it is set as an IDE stack. Additionally
there is a runtime property of stacks that you can set `_ideoverride` that can
turn this behavior on and off.
Jacque’s issue is we have an IDE script that dynamically sets these in
revfrontsciptlibrary preOpenStack:
if revIDEObjectIsOnIDEStack(tTarget) then
# IM-2016-03-01: [[ Bug 16244 ]] IDE stacks should always hide invisible
objects
set the showInvisibles of stack tStack to false
set the _ideoverride of stack tStack to true
end if
It all hinges on a function in revcommonlibrary:
function revStackNameIsIDEStack pStackName
if there is a stack pStackName and the _ideoverride of stack pStackName then
return true
else if pStackName is among the items of "message box,answer dialog,ask
dialog,home" then
return true
else if pStackName begins with "com.livecode." then
return true
else if pStackName is among the lines of revInternal__ListLoadedLibraries()
then
return true
else
return pStackName begins with "rev"
end if
end revStackNameIsIDEStack
We could look at changing that to ensure the filename of the stack is an IDE or
plugin file path but in your case just patching that to set the caseSensitive
to true just before checking for “rev” would cover it.
Cheers
Monte
