5.0.2 startup woes

[Pierre Sahores]

Hi Fred,

I can confirm that LC 5.0.2 is not working as expected. The bug you reports is 100% reproductible there. Seems that mothership will have to solve this for us !

Along the tests, i discovered the following :

Some of my stacks are using extensively code to have all component (fields, buttons, bg image, etc...) owns its right relative position to each other when the stack is live resized to its main rect at open and resume time.

All works fine under LC 5.0.1 and previous 4.x.x / 5.0 versions (Snow Leo 10.6.8, XP SP3 and above) and leaks under LC 5.0.2. It seems to me that my resize stack code is't catched in the expected way anymore. I tested the situation in using "set the acceleratedRendering of stack "my stack" to true|false" back and forth but the problem occurs in both situations and don't seems to depend from the acceleratedRendering prop state at all.

I reported this to support. Did you too ? Else, please do it ;-)

Best,

Pierre

Does anyone know why now with 5.0.2, preopenstack, startup and openstack suddenly don't work correctly when you start LiveCode by double-clicking on a stack? By the way, I do sense that version 5 starts up much quicker than 4, but maybe that has something to do with it -- maybe there are some steps it is skipping.

(Everything works fine if LiveCode is already running.) But, for example, if you make a stack that simply consists of a stack script that says:

Am I missing something really basic here? If I drag my new version 5.0.2 to the trash,  which leaves 4.6.4 to start up, and do the same thing, the tool switches to browse tool as it should. There are other startup issues suddenly going on in 5.0.2 which I don't understand.
