Having major Livecode problems

[Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami]

Ditto all your issues here… mysterious… one thing seems to have helped and that is to set all stacks to

destroyStack
destroyWindow

on close.

I believe this is the same as choosing "Close and removed from memory"  Although even now, occasionally I get the "stack XYZ is open do you want to purge" even though I *did* close that stack and removed it from memory.

At any rate, it seems to help when working with many stacks, the ones you are not using are indeed not in memory. After setting this for ever and any stack I open/create, my crashes started to go down…

Things got better for a while, and now I am back to having Livecode crash
constantly, but again, just on 2 of my 3 computers. (Unfortunately it's the
2 that I am working on most often.)

I've started at least getting some crash reports, so i started putting them
into a ticket, but these crashes can come as often as every 5 minutes, so I
keep losing a lot of work.

Deleteing my prefs file definitely helps short term, but besides being a
pain it is only temporary.

I also don't have anything to help pinpoint why it is happening. This
morning, Livecode has crashed on me 6 times, and it happened (in order)
when:
-switching from "Point" to "Browse" via clicking the tools palette
-(in browse mode) deleting a field off a card
-switching from "Browse" to "Point" via shortcut (Command-Option-Tab)
-(in browse mode) opening the property window of a navbar widget
-(in point mode) clicking on a button which was supposed to send me to a
different card
-while editing a script I right clicked on a command and chose "Go to
definition" (which was on the stack script)
