Hi Beat,
A failsafe method is to use the target in a frontscript.
on resumeStack
showActiveStack
-- do something with the result if you like
pass resumeStack
end resumeStack
on preOpenStack
showActiveStack
-- do something with the result if you like
pass preOpenStack
end preOpenstack
on showActiveStack theTarget
if theTarget is empty then put long id of the target into theTarget
put the short name of theTarget into myStack
-- do something with myStack for example...
if fld "Current Stack" of stack "Tiny Window" is not myStack then
put myStack into fld "Current Stack" of stack "Tiny Window"
end if
return theTarget -- might be useful
end showActiveStack
-- Optionally, use the following to display the mouseStack
on mouseMove
put long id of the target into myTarget
put value(word (wordOffset("stack",myTarget) + 1) of myTarget) into
myStackPath
put long id of stack myStackPath into myStack
-- you might also use "the long id of the mouseStack"
-- but I believe that may not always work
showActiveStack myStack
-- do something with the result if you like
pass preOpenStack
end mouseMove
(Please mind line wraps and typos).
