I'm trying to apply some optimization techniques learned from the
online scripting conferences. And running into snags.

"Placing" a group instead of copying and pasting it seems to turn its
background behavior on. Is there something similar for non-background
groups? Here's what I'm faced with - I'm currently pasting between
some 100 to 300 copies of a single group onto a card. Is there a
better way to do this than copy-once-paste-many?


You should definitely be placing the group onto the cards in this case. Having 300 copies of a group will not only inflate the stack size, but you'd have to make any changes to it 300 times if you want to alter something.

Setting the backgroundbehavior of a group which has been placed on many cards makes sense (it changes the message path, which is usually what you want with a shared group.) But if you don't want group messages to happen after the card messages, then just turn off backgroundBehavior after you are done placing the group on all the cards.

Why wouldn't you want backgroundBehavior in this case? Does your stack create new cards on the fly where you don't want the group placed?
