You will have to go to each card and select the group from the Place Group

Thanks . . .

Ooooh; tedious!

Well . . . I am proposing to have end-users create groups (by clicking on a button) that will then propagate across cards . . . in a standalone . . . Well; I'll just have to get "down 'n dirty" and work out the thing in the stack and then see if it still works in a standalone.

I wonder if when I exit the stack/standalone I will have to delete the group once; or whether what in fact is happening is the group is being duplicated across whichever cards I use the Place group command on and each instantiation will have to be deleted
separately?

So:

1. I developed a stack with one card.

2. Populated that card with a group "GX".

3. Set the backgroundBehavior of group "GX" to true.

4. Started making new cards, and as I did so the group "GX"
    became visible on all of them.

   Lovely . . .  :)

5. As I made each new card I also created card-specific controls on that card.

6. Now I create a new group ("GN") on card 1 and set its backgroundBehavior
    to true.

7. Group "GN" does NOT propagate across any of the pre-existing cards . . .  :(

How do I get a NEW group with backgroundBehavior set to true to propagate
across a set of cards created prior to that group?
