AW: LC 8: Go stack doesn't work anymore?

[Tiemo Hollmann TB]

Finally I solved this issue, due to my program design.
While starting up my "main" program, I opened a small helper stack in modal
mode and hided it directly.
With LC 8 on  OS X 10.11 this prevented obviously the main stack to show up,
though it was opened. (On Windows it worked this way). The result was, that
in the standalone it looked like the main stack never was reached by my "go
to".  I removed the modal of my helper stack and now everything is fine.

If you are opening a stack for the first time (it is not in memory) then you
have to specify the full URL for the stack file (including “.livecode” if
that is in the filename of the stack). After that, the stack can be accessed
by only the name of the stack within LiveCode.

I’m seeing it work properly in LC8.
