Reading your code, I am a little confused about 'this' and
'me'. In my (admittedly limited) experience, rev also gets
confused about these things. What happens if you try this:
breakpoint
put the short name of stack "myStack" into myCallingStack
show stack "myOtherStack"
go stack "myOtherStack"
set the fileName of player "PlayerThumbnail" of "myOtherStack" to
theMovieFilePathName
One other thought, remove the parentheses in
"go stack the (short name of me)"
Rev may see that as: go stack the "myOtherStack"
Hope that helps,
