I don't see how that can be if it's sharedText is true and grouped with backgroundBehavior set to true. If it is, then it runs in the background mode like HyperCard, meaning it should be on every card of that background group. If you actually don't want to see it on other cards, then hide it until you get back to the card on which you want to see it and show it there. It should display with the selection still on. In fact, if you leave it selected, you should be able to _close_ the stack and reopen it and it should _still_ be selected. Somewhere I have stacks with 17 autoSelect, sharedText fields, and all of them will still show their last selected lines until I deliberately deselect them. You can select anything else, anywhere else, and it shouldn't deselect a shared text background field (well, a grouped field with background behavior on). Is this making any sense?
