Don’t both of these issues disappear if you create a stack view object instead of group scalefactor? Given a stack which already has a scaleFactor? Object rects remain relative to the stack whether the stack is presented as a window or in a view. From the perspective of the stack with the window it would just have a single view object which has a stackName and a rect.. perhaps some other stuff like visible etc...
