Custom Property Issue

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi Scott,

You could try a simpler code since you don't need to open invisible a  
stack then change its style (that is the same thing that reopening it  
again):

on mouseUp
   set the dialogData to empty
   if the platform is "MacOS" then
     sheet stack "StackDataEntry"
   else
     modal stack "StackDataEntry"
   end if
   -- handler pauses here until the StackDataEntry stack is closed
   if the dialogData <> empty then
     <statements>
   end if
end mouseUp

In the Save button of your StackDataEntry stack:

on mouseUp
   set the dialogData to <What_I_Need_To_Know>
   close this stack
end mouseUp

And quite simply in the Cancel button of your StackDataEntry stack:

on mouseUp
   close this stack
end mouseUp

See dialogData in docs.
Hope this helps :-)
