One possibility would be to maintain a list of the "barked" cards somewhere, maybe in a custom property of your main stack. You could do that with a setProp handler for "barked" that added the card ID to the master list if the property was set to true and removed it if it was set to false (assuming "barked" is a custom property).
Once that list is in place, write some simple list navigation handlers like goNextBarked, goPrevBarked, etc. Pete Haworth On Mar 31, 2011, at 10:18 AM, Timothy Miller wrote: > Hey dudes, > > The "marked" property is so easy to use.
