Can a substack become the mainstack and the mainstack become its substack?

[Bob Sneidar]

You do not need to make the splash stack the mainstack. Just include the actual mainstack in the Stack Files of the splash screen stack, and when have code in the splash screen stack that opens the main stack. Then you can still keep your stack/substack structure of your project.
