Standalone Issues

[Bob Sneidar]

NVM. Something simple. I copied a group of these buttons from one stack to other stacks, and discovered I had not update the ID's after copying. I've seen posts about this before. It would be nice to refer to a graphic by name instead in the properties of a button so objects like my nav bar would be truely portable. I'll file an enhancement request.

I have a single folder in my project containing all the image files for the project. When I import a graphic for a button, I reference the graphic to the image file so that I can replace the image files and change the look and feel of the application.

I'm hoping this will be a simple "Oh just do such and such" sort of problem. I *could* have a startup routine that re-links all the graphic files. That would suck.

Still no luck. Any suggestions? I suspect the graphic ID's are not the same in the standalone version of the working stacks as they are in the development version, so the links are effectively broken. I would think the standalone builder would account for this.
