Scott - the main issue is the second one you've mentioned, below,
although it would be more accurate to say 'using transitions behind a
fixed foreground'. I'd like for the fixed foreground to be transparent,
hence the introduction of the custom window shape idea.
Dr. Hawkins also suggested the groups idea which I can try, although now
that I think about it that might be a little complicated since it's my
users, not me, who populate each card with objects. I'm also
considering snapshots of the entire screen and transitioning from one
PNG to the other while maintaining the same fixed group of objects in
the foreground.

AFAIK, you can't use the windowShape property on mobile stacks. But you
might achieve the effect of one stack in front of another by moving your
card-based content into groups, and showing/hiding groups on a single card
(with the card acting as the background stack). You can apply the same
transitions used when navigating between cards to showing/hiding groups.
However, the above might not be necessary. You also might be able to
change your background stack into a background object that appears behind
all cards in your foreground stack.

As far as I know, it's not possible to display two stacks simultaneously
on either Android or iOS. Does anybody have any suggestions for a work
around to this?
In my case I have a stack with multiple cards which transition with
visual effects as users go from card to card. I'd like to keep this
look while at the same time displaying in front of it another, fixed,
video game style 'heads-up' stack on screen using the window mask
property.
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
