I am planning to create a collaborative work group situation and before
starting want to know something I could try by testing, but would rather
know even before planning out the stack architecture. It is simply this:
1) Can you assign a stack to be a stack file of multiple main stacks? i.e.

Just off the top of my head - not sure if this is the best way to do
this - but what about having your repeat loop in an "on idle" message
in the card script. The loop should test to see if it should be

I've seen this before, but could not find it in the archives...
Suppose I want a stack with one field and two buttons, named "Start" and
"Stop." When I click "Start", I want the field to auto-scroll and keep
scrolling, until I click the "Stop" button. Obviously a simple repeat loop

Well, yes and no, but it isn't safe to assume that's the case. In its
virgin state, MacOS won't recognize the association. When you

A minor point, but the Windows font name is "Times New Roman." This
