Re: copy group to substack?
Hi Charles, Try to copy your group to cd ID 1002 of stack ID 1002 should be the first card (check this before) In a preOpenstack handler in this substack: place group "lineImage" onto cd 2 For sure, your copy was placed on the first card and you can't place this group onto this card since it's already there :-) You should understand the second option in the error message. Don't forget that you can check all this in the application browser. Le 4 août 05 à 16:29, Charles Hartman a écrit : I know my explanation was a mess; sorry. Following your Place suggestion (thanks, I'd forgotten that command), I've tried this: 1. in a handler in the main stack, copy the correct group to the substack (NOT a card in a substack); rename it (from "lineimagegroup7" or "lineimagegroup3" or whatever to "lineImage") 2. in the openCard handler in the substack, issue a command "place group 'lineImage' of this stack onto this card" When I do that, I get an error message: "group is not in this stack or is already on this card".

I think that might be the problem... if you're currently doing this: copy group "MyGroup" to stack "MySubStack" then you need to copy to the *cards* of the substack, as in: copy group "MyGroup" to card 1 of stack "MySubStack" copy group "MyGroup" to card 2 of stack "MySubStack" This assumes that the current defaultStack is the main stack.
