Just discovered a trick I didn't know about. This is in the IDE, BTW.
I needed to have the first card of one of my stacks as the current
card, while I do something from another stack (a utility stack). If I
"go card 1 of stack <stackName>" then the stack <stackName> comes to
the front, but I want to keep the utility stack as the topstack, so
even following this by "go back" or some such looks messy on screen.
Instead, I can do this:
set the currentcard of stack <stackName> to \
the short name of card 1 of stack <stackName>
and it all happens in the background.
Probably others knew about this, but I didn't, so I'm posting it for
those like me for whom it is a new trick.
