No need to delete. You only need to make a group of your "common widgets", create a template card on which you copy that group, then create would edit each single card of your stack: delete the "common group" if already exists on a card and copy the "background" group on every card of the stack. Quick and effective (the problem with the use as background property is that it does transfer to new cards, but doesn't always transpose the changes made on the last card on the previous cards -- at least when I use it) My solution to this problem can be found at: http://revolution.lexicall.org/user_contributions/changeStack.rev Different little functions to change the background group of a stack over a set of stacks and substacks, reposition that background automatically, rename objects, replace the icon reference, etc. Essential when you build up multimedia applications with large numbers of cards. (Written in a way that is useful to me... but code that shouldn't be too difficult to understand).
