Hello Andre,
I retested to be sure that I was calling the drawer from the main
stack but still no luck in OSX below 10.4
I notice you used the form
> drawer stack "Attribute editor" at right of stack "HTML Editor"
I have found that the word "of" is not reliable and that "in" (drawer
stack "Attribute editor" at right in stack "HTML Editor") works best.
