- Rich,
- The 'View' format in MacApp 3.0 requires that a single view be at the top of a
- hierarchy saved as a resource. This was not the case in MA2.
- If you try to put multiple views at the top level (without using a window as
- your top view) Ad Lib will enclose them with a generic TView with the id
- 'base'. (This is mentioned in the manual but not described at length.) If you
- edit this view by adding more views at the top level (i.e., even with 'base')
- you will get another 'base' to enclose them all. The only way to avoid this is
- to make sure that all view resources contain only one view at the top of the
- hierarchy.

- Nick
