Can't see my stack

Hi.


I know.


It is topLevel, in that it is an editable, resizable window. Is there something else in that regard? Once I make it visible, I can save it and dismiss it, but it will not reappear, double clicked from the finder. Only if I launch in a new LC session does it act normally. I just want to make sure it does not contain some lurking corruption.



The stack's openStack handler can be empty, and there is no preOpenStack handler, so I cannot see how Bob's suggestion could help. I will try tomorrow anyway.

A stack's visible property can be true while the stack is hidden. The 
property and the actual screen draw are separate things. Have you tried 
re-saving it after making it toplevel and it's in view?
