substack foreground

[link76]

Hello,
when I open the sub-stack, it is not in the foreground but behind the main stack,
how can I fix this?

Code: Select all

open stack "mysubstack"

Hi link76,

welcome to the forum!

Make sure the mainstack is NOT a "palette", "sytemwindow" or any other window type that is always n the foreground!
Try:
...
toplevel stack "your substack here"
...

Hi Link76,

try

Code: Select all

go stack "mysubstack"

and see if that helps.

If you issue that in a stack handler of the main stack it works. On the other side if you issue this in a preopenstack handler it will not bring the substack to the foreground.
When and how do you want to show the substack?
Kind regards
Bernd

I have a main stack, when I click on the button open a substack 1 and close the main stack is ok.

but ... from substack1 I open the substack2 but it is behind

MAIN STACK

Code: Select all

open stack "substack1"
close stack "mainstack"

SUBSTACK1

Code: Select all

on MouseUp
open stack "substack2"
end MouseUP 

substack2 is behind substack1

Aha.Hmm, that should work, no idea so far...

I could offer to take a look at your stack, if you like!?
