It's good to know I'm not completely senile yet. There was an ancient 
bug in the engine for something like 12 years where the stack did not 
resize properly on Mac standalones. It finally got fixed recently. 
That's probably the difference you're seeing. In LiveCode earlier than 
5.x the stack would cut off the bottom instead of resizing, it would 
make you crazy and required strange workarounds. You should build with 
5.0+ where it's fixed.
