Nice ! Thank you very much Paul
I was looking for a way to make a menu that could be common to several hundred of stacks (mains stacks!!) Don't know if it is possible. Fortunately, in my app. these stacks have no scripts at all ; more precisely all the scripts are in behaviors (one for the stack script and one for each of the 3 types of card) which are in a central main stack. So I have just to add such a script (like yours or that of Jacques) and it will be immedialely working on all the stacks!
