I have used a group as a background in my current project, but when
adding another item to the group I get a warning that the group will be
removed from any other cards which use it. Then I have to manually
place the group back on the cards that Rev removed it from. Luckily,
it's easy to do with a script from the message box, but is there a way
to add items to a group without having Rev remove the group from the
cards where it currently resides?
Curious,
