Figured it out and feel dumb...I used moveStack from the main stack to set the

Thanks Roger for pointing out the Float Above Everything tip

Thank you Roger!  That works to easily keep the substack on top!

How to I have the substack "track" the main stack when the main stack is 
dragged somewhere else on the screen?

Hi Jim,

Just check the "Float above evertyhing" in the stack properties of the substack.
