I tend to put most of my scripts at the group level, rather than the object level. On some of these groups I select "background behavior" in the property inspector. I had understood that this would put the group in the message path between the card and the stack... but it doesn't seem to behave like that.
The background behavior property has nothing to do with the message path: it simply determines whether the group is included on any new card created in the stack.
See below...
If my group has a method... er, handler called "groupAction" and the group is "background behavior TRUE" then I had thought that *any* object on the card could do like -
on mouseUp groupAction end mouseUp
Not *any* object on the card: just controls in the group.
Sorry. Still confused. Accodring to the dox -
---------------
If a group's backgroundBehavior is false, the group is in the message path for all controls it owns, but is not in the message path of any other object.
If a group's backgroundBehavior property is true, the group is also in the message path for any cards it is placed on.

What you are describing is the former. What I want is the latter.
