On openStack - preopenstack

Salut Thierry,

Je n'ai pas trouvé de workaround but my stacks are opening again as they
should :

I took a copy of the splash stack created on windows ; made a standalone on
OS X for OS X... And guess what, no problems...

Very étrange, n'est-ce pas ?


Is it because Rev 2.5 on OS X is "corrupting" the stacks ? I don't know how
and why ?

Furthermore, I think it becomes difficult to develop cross-platformed in
that way : when I deploy my project to windows, it does not do what it
should and does in OS X ; fonts sizes are different, revcopyfile (e.g.) does
not work on Os X, but does on windows ; I find there are problems with the
graphic core on OS X : model'ing a stack in a standalone makes parts of the
underlying window (when stack is in metal look) disappearing , the window is
redrawn when minimizing and then maximizing it again ; changing the label of
a stack via script in a standalone (metal look) does not show up as it
should --> same procedure : mini-maximizing does change the label ; stacks
created on OS X become in a strange way inoperable on the win version of Rev
(e.g. Had problems to do the standalone (done with stacks created on OS X)
save its data to a data stack...)

How can one be sure to have the same project on windows when one has only a
Mac version of Revolution ?

I don't know; I like Revolution very much, but at times it costs me a lot of
time which I cannot always sacrifice for chasing after "bugs" I pay for...
Sorry


I hope this are just temporary frustrations and I like to see Revolution
become better and better...

Cheers,
Christian
