The same problems appears when I use the backdrop
it is easy to reproduce it :
this is the script of a test button :

(When the backdrop remains set to none, the stacks behave correctly)

On mouseup
   -- set  the backdrop to black
anser "and now another stack"
create stack "this is the last stack"
-- set the backdrop to none
end mouseup

if the first line is uncommented, the last stack, which is the 
topstack, is displayed behind the first stack

if the backdrop is set to none via the message box, the last stack is 
correctly displayed.
It is correctly displayed too if the last line of the test button 
script is uncommented.


this is not the only problem generated by the backdrop

With macOs when the backdrop is set to some color, the stack can be 
minimized.
On Windows, trying to minimize a stack with a backdrop crashes the 
standalone ( only tested on  laptop computers and only tested  with 
standalones built with MacOs for Windows)
