There is a parameter to tell which group is the target of the message. I didn’t
think the group would need to check to see if it was supposed to be the target
of the message though. The openBackground dictionary entry doesn’t make that
clear. The preOpenBackground dictionary entry does point it
The alternative would be to send a separate message for every background on a
card. It is odd though. Brian, have you tried the target to determine the group
you need?

Yeah, that just seems wrong to me. Doesn't seem like there should be a
hierarchy for backgroun

The openBackground works the same way, but the dictionary entry there makes it
sound like the message is direct. I only read that entry which is why I was
c
Because the background is being opened when the card is loaded. All backgrounds
on the card are opened, and therefore pre-opened.

Quick question about the PreOpenBackground messages...
If you have 2 background groups that both use the same button as their
behavior with the following code:
on preOpenBackground
put the short id of me after msg
end preOpenBackground
Wouldn't you expect to see the ID of both groups?
Same issue with openbackground
Thanks,
