OK - lets rename the challenge :) Same problem - but defining it as follows:
- Is it possible to create a handler in the behavior of a shared group
that returns the number of the card the shared group is on?
This is the same problem - it is a problem of finding a reference to the
card a con

No joy with the owner - it's a fundamental issue of a reference to the
field / group / target - the owner and all references I know of return the
value associated with the current card not the value of the actual card the
target is on. I view this (and always have as a quite serious bug) - I'm

David,
This may not be any less inelegant that parsing the long id, but how having
the Title_Text be an array with its keys being either the card number or
the card id?

OK - let's be more descriptive - this card and the current card won't work.
Let's picture an application - say it's a keynote style presentation stack
- and we are creating background groups that a user can place in the
presentation. Say the presentation has 10 cards and all of them happen to

That is the issue - there is no "easy" way of finding out the value of

Thanks Scott - yes you can do that - so for instance:

René, I am adopting the solution from Mark,

I am not very familiar with custom properties, so I am going to give it a try

This problem is based on the same issue that Pete Haworth ran into:
references to controls within groups placed on multiple cards resolve to
the current card.
Not sure if this would be an option for you, but you could use commands in
the behavior instead of set/getProp and include the card number

Thank you much Mark,

Hi André,
Thre's a good chance that script run when you clone the stack, which make it
visible. Lock the messages before cloning the stack.

Nothing - it should work - both for mainstacks and substacks. Just tested
on OSX and it works fine - what platform are you using?

Bonjour,
I have a main stack (say mainStack1" of which one substack is a model stack,
say stack "stackModel"
On an another main stack, I have a button with a mouseUp handler that creates a
new stack by cloning the model stack.
When I clone invisible stack "stackModel", that create a stack "cop
By the way the issue appears to be that "play someVideoFile" does not work
