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.
 
Regards,
Nick
