Heh, heh...
Actually, that's probably a valid Q where I am this time of year (lots of
flu bug going around). I can see someone sneezing and accidentally clicking
;-)

...but no. I still have no clue why it happened, and I don't want to be
chasing flyaway objects. There were no scripts in any fields, nor any that
referred to them, i.e., it's just a layout shell.

The only currently working scripts are these:

1) In a dropdown menu button of the control palette:

on mouseUp
  get selectedText(me)
  open stack it
  go stack it
end mouseUp

2) In the Stack script of the control palette:

on moveStack
  global gDockCon
  get the loc of stack "Helping Hands Con"
  add (width of stack "Helping Hands Con"/2) to item 1 of it
    put the rect of stack topStack() into topSRect
    subtract 323 from item 3 of topSRect
    if it is within topSRect then
    get the topleft of stack topStack()
    subtract 176 from item 1 of it
    add 16 to item 2 of it
    set the topleft of stack "Helping Hands Con" to it
    put "docked" into gDockCon
    set the hidePalettes to true
  else
    put empty into gDockCon
    set the hidePalettes to false
  end if
  --pass moveStack
end moveStack

3) In the Stack Script of each of the other two windows:

on moveStack
  global gDockCon
  if gDockCon is empty then
    exit moveStack 
  else 
    get topleft of this stack
    subtract 176 from item 1 of it
    add 16 to item 2 of it
    set topleft of stack "Helping Hands Con" to it
  end if
  pass moveStack
end moveStack

...That's all there is at the moment.

Thanks for looking,
Ken N.
