Quitting Question

Hi Joe,

The problem here is that the Quit menu item in the application menu doesn't trigger any Revolution messages, except for shutdownRequest. After you choose the Quit menu item, it is the operating system that stops the application, not Revolution itself. However, before the operating system stops the application, it sends a message, which in turn triggers the shutdownRequest message.

If you still want to solve this, then you'll need to post your current script.

As is, too complicated; plus it doesn't work even implementing your suggestions. I may have made a mistake, but I don't think so. I've just decided to always save with that caveat to users. Not a friendly solution, but my users will be very bright professionals. Not to say that we haven't all screwed up at one time or another. (smile)
