Ok, then, instead of setting the vis of the stack I am setting the vis of a
black graphic to serve as a "card backdrop"  grc as you suggest. this still
doesn't work:

==============
on openStack
  wait 1 second
  lock screen
  hide grc 1 #this is a grc filled with black
  visual effect dissolve
  unlock screen
end openStack

on closestack
  show grc 1
end closeStack
=========
oddly, if I simply type into the message box. . .after the stack is open:

show grc 1 with visual effect dissolve # this works and so does:
hide grc 1 with visual effect dissolve

but then if I put the very same into the open stack handler. . .it STILL
doesn't work.
=========
on openStack
    wait 1 second
    show grc 1 with visual effect dissolve
end openStack

on closestack
  show grc 1
end closeStack
========
My stack opens with grc 1 already hidden.
