This did work:
place background "Waiting" onto this card
and I see that background behavior is turned off already. Thanks.

It's now possible to share a group without it being a background; i.e.,
a card group can be placed on many cards. I haven't tried it. But the

I'm now starting to figure out this. I converted a card field into a group and
it continued to lay on top. However, when I made some choices in the
Inspector--like auto-place, things whacked out. It shrunk to 8x8 pixels, text
disappeared, colors went away, program crashed.
I'll work on it.

Can groups layer on top of card objects? I can't seem to make that happen.

It seems to cover them. Make sure that you're selecting the group (set to act
like background) that contains your button and overlay, and bring that to
front. It then seems to be in front of everything. You'll need to
bring-to-front it on all cards.

create a group with a field and a graphic. Make sure the field is at the
very top level with the graphic in back. Set the blendlevel and color of
the graphic to be 0 or whatever level looks good (I'd use 50%) and make it
the same rect of the card. The field can be whatever size you need to show

An opaque button as a group object doesn't cover card layer objects. I can't
leave the card--that won't work for my situation.

Why not an opaque button? You can have some kind of background image so it
doesn't look so hokey. Alternatively, you can just take them to another card.

Hi all,
I have a stack with many cards. Each card contains a group and card objects. I
want a single object (a field saying "Please wait...") to show as necessary and
overlay everything on the card. It's hidden by scripts when no longer
needed--the wait is over.
As far as I can figure, that ob
