Description

Handle the suspendStack message if you want to perform some action when a stack window is made inactive.

The suspendStack message is sent whenever a stack window is no longer the active window: when the stack window is closed, when another stack is brought to the front, when other LiveCode windows are brought to the front, and when switching to another program.

The actual window deactivation process is not triggered by the suspendStack message, so trapping the message and not allowing it to pass does not prevent the stack window from becoming inactive.
