Thanks for this Chipp. Can I make a suggestion?

With anything that has to do with groups, I would find helpful to have a kind of DOM inspector that will color the border of nested groups with different colors depending of their levels in the hierarchy. I have asked a bit around. Best way to do it is to have a transparent stack over the real stack to hold the "colored rectangles", so that real UI is unchanged by UI information.

... well, why expect you to do it for me rather than do it myself? That's something I wanted to explore anyway. There is now in revonline an early draft of such an utility, utility category or user "Marielle". Called "Nested_groups_revealer". This should be changed into a palette but I have no time for this today.

Note that it uses the "blend" mode of mac osx. I haven't explored blending options on pc yet. Easiest is to edit the group "transparent layer" and set the opaque to false. For this, type in the message box: set the opaque of group "transparent layer" to false.

or in msg box:
go URL "http://www.gadgetplugins.com/altplugins/altGroupMgr.rev";
and then be sure and palette it (click in the very left top corner and it will palette).
