If you copy the first card, and have the objects in a background (group with backgroundbehavior set to true) then you do not need to clone the cards from that point. Just use create card, with the current card on the card with the desired background group.
Alternately, you could copy the original stack, then delete any cards that you do not wish to keep in the new stack. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Squance Sent: Sunday, June 19, 2005 6:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; How to use Revolution Subject: Re: Copy card question from 1 stack file to another Jim, Perhaps it would work to copy one card, make sure the menu and field are grouped and the background behaviour is on and then clone the card with a repeat loop, either in the message box or with a button which could later be hidden or deleted, if this is a one-shot affair. The button / msg box script could have a line to set the name of each card, if needed.
