Lock screen & layering of stacks?

[Charles E Buchwald]

Hi Scott,
I have a commercial project... the most complex thing I've done in LiveCode, with substacks, stack files, and lots going on. I have some "flickering" there. I figured it was the way I'm using lockScreen, so I made a test stack. While testing with the test stack I noticed this odd behaviour. It's not affecting my big project, but thought it was odd, and perhaps evidence of a misunderstanding on my part about the way that lockScreen works, or is supposed to work....
