Those objects that need to scroll must be placed in a group, the group given
scroll bars, and sized to fit the card.  Then turn on lockLocation for the
group so it doesn't resize to fit its contents when the stack is reopened.
Remember to resize the group when the stack is resized, and make full use of
selectGroupedControls to edit the contents of the group without having to go
into editBg mode or ungroup the objects.
