Thank you for possible conforming, but this is not seen in the IDE. Jut 
in the built Standalone. It is also very clear that LiveCode thinks the 
mouse is 20-40 pixels towards the top of the window than it actually is. 
If I want to click on a button, I don't put the mouse over the button 
but about 30px under the bottom and click and the button hilites and 
functions.

I think Richard Gaskin has the best educated guess on this. It's like 
LiveCode is compensating for a Mac Menubar for that stack that isn't there.
