I am finding myself creating multiple substacks of the main stack in my

But each window only has one card.

Question 1 - I have been putting some handlers in the stack script and some
in the card script. But when there is just one card, it doesn't really
matter which you put them in, right?

Right, with one major exception. The stack scripts of the substacks will be in the message hierarchy when the stack is frontmost. The card scripts will not. Sometimes this makes a big difference.


Of course the card script will be in the hierarchy if the message was sent
to a control in that card though, right?

I misspoke, which usually means it is time for me to give up for the night. Sorry. The card script would be in the hierarchy, as you say. I was thinking of stacks that have been put into use. In that case, the stack script is always in the hierarchy whether the stack is frontmost or not.


If the stack is in use and you put a handler into its stack script, any other stack can use it, and it can potentially run at the wrong time.
