more rev 3.0 woes - losing the will to live

[Bernard Devlin]

Eric and Mark, Thanks for your attempts to save my sanity (of course, it
could well be too late).

I re-started 3.0, loaded stsMLXEditor, found the first guilty-looking 'save
this stack', and commented it out... and then 3.0 crashed before I could
even save it!  Unbelievable.  I couldn't face going through every stack and
finding every handler that caused a stack to be saved.

What I didn't understand is that I have checked 'preserve stack file version
on stacks saved in legacy format' in Rev's preferences.  Yet it seemed to be
ignoring that in these stacks that have several of their own self-saving
events.  After searching bugzilla I found that it this is indeed broken:
http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=4695.  Ken Ray provides a
workaround for it: in the MB type: "set the stackFileversion to 2.4;save
this stack".  After doing that and quitting Rev, the stack is finally in 2.4
and remaining in 2.4.

Thanks for your commiserations.  I know I must sound like my whining button
is stuck on 'loop', but these have been the worst 5 months I've had with Rev
in 7 years.

Bernard
