Stack keeps closing ... what to do?

Post by shawnblc » Sat May 24, 2014 6:08 pm

I have a stack that I'm using as a splash stack which is launching the main stack that will be on a server. I want to modify the splash stack, but the thing keeps closing on me. How can suspend or remove the close stack? Is it best to just make it invisible instead of closing it?

Hi Shawn,
In the menu bar there is a letter icon, Messages. Click on that before opening your splash stack, it will prevent code from running so your splash stack will remain open.

Excellent! That worked. I've been trying different scripts in the message box for the last hour! lol
