Hello everyone,
I'm revisiting the problem related to the one described below. I'm
trying to import a JPEG of Mac OS X's striped background to use as a
background for a stack. I need to import it into a group (background),
so that it will appear on every card created, but the menu item
File/Import As Control... only works at the stack level. If I'm
editing a group, File/Import As Control... does nothing. And, as
described below for buttons and fields, if I import the image into the
stack level, I cannot cut and paste it into the group using keystrokes
or Paste Objects under the Edit menu! I used to be able to do this.
My work-around is to simply import the image to the stack level and
make it a one-object background. Kind of a big hassle for something
that should take a second.

I'm having problems cutting and pasting fields and buttons between the
stack level and a background in Mac OS X. If I cut a button using the
Cut command under the Edit menu, and then edit a group, nothing happens
when I try to Paste. Is this a bug?
