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".

Hi Charles,
To be frank, I don't understand very well the problem.
But just a thought:
You could try to copy your group on the first card (or not) of your
substack, and then place it (see the place command) onto the other
cards where you need it.
Hope this can help...

I'm really baffled. Following suggestions on list, I'm handling
the transfer of data to a "dialog" substack by copying a group.
The group contains an image and a lot of little fields. The
substack has two cards. I do the copy command in a button handler
in a card in the main stack. The groups are kept (invisibly) on
the same card, and each button press selects one for copying to
the substack. The copied group needs to show up in both cards
(each card) in the substack.
I'm getting every kind of confusion. I've tried copying to the
substack itself. But its accessibility within each of the two
cards in the stack seems haphazard (sometimes different groups
show up on the two cards! so I'm doing _something_ wrong in the
copy). I've tried copying the group to the first card in the
substack, but I'm having trouble getting a copy to the second card
that I then need to do can't find it.
In other words, I'm not understanding how this works. Is it groups
I don't understand (their relation to a _stack_ or a _card in the
stack_ -- these groups are _not_ marked with a background
property, by the way, either in the main stack or in the
substack)? Or is it copy? I rename "it" right after copying the
group to the substack (this is how I keep from needing to specify
which main-stack group I'm working with while I'm in the
substack); is that getting me in trouble? I've been over the docs
several (many) times, and can't find out where the gap in my
conception is.
I hope this makes enough sense to be answerable -- it doesn't make
much sense to me any more.
