No, not that I can find? The stacks offered under "Stacks and Applications" have the following blurb;
"Browse the stacks & applications menu, where you'll find all kinds of examples created in Dreamcard and Revolution - "
The stacks I checked are all produced by developers and priced from $15.00 to over $1,000.
Rev's blurb further reads; "some of which (the stacks) you can pull apart to see exactly how they work."
None I checked were unlocked to "take apart and study"!
I'm at a loss as to what prompted Revolution to drop the sample stacks they previously offered???

I agree and certainly expected to have some helpful example stacks.
>What exactly are you looking for?
Sample stacks for study illustrating some of the basics. Maybe some info indicating significant differences vs. HyperCard, etc.

I've used HyperCard since it first came out (87?) and really liked it. I'm going to Revolution because I can't stay on Mac OS 9.x forever. And I see Revolution has some significant improvements over HyperCard.
I do appreciate your reply and I trust this forum will be a valuable resource.
Thanks Again and TAKE CARE,
Ralph
