Steve, Welcome to RR. I also came from the HC/SC background and was taken by the group "behave" issue, at first it seemed an oversight to a much used convention. But since I've been using RR I have found that I use backgrounds less and less. I think this is one thing that truly differentiates RR from HC and SC. In HC I used Cards with backgrounds in every project, then in SC I made the jump to windows with many cards and some backgrounds and now I use many stacks with windows with some cards and very few backgrounds. It is a change in the way I have come to think about our style of programming. The message path and properties etc. take on a much more important roll nowadays and some things like background behaviors taken on a much smaller role.
Anyway, you seem to have found what you need so Welcome and hope to see you more on the list. Tom McGrath On May 4, 2010, at 10:39 AM, Steve Jones wrote: > Aha - that was it.
