I've always been able to access them before.
It's been that way since I can remember. If the group is placed on the

Same card? I'm not even calling from the same stack :)
I have a routine to assemble properties, phrases, and the like
OK, I¹m mistaken, exists should find the group even when not on the
current card. When the group reference is combined with the stack
reference, it works.
It also works as the following, which makes sense.
put exists(grp id 1006 of this stack)

Is the group on the current (visible) card?
If not, then exists will be false. Otherwise, the id is enough when the
group is present on the current card.

Doing the equivalent on a control in one of
put exists(group id 1004 of group id of card id 1016 of stack "nv") &&
exists(group id 1004 of stack "nv")
yields
true false
Huh?
Isn't the id and stack unique and sufficient?
