Hi John,

I had another look at your stack and the cascade button in question.
It must have sustained some shape-shifting for its properties to be  
set that way.

To have the cascade button work as you like, you should:
     - turn autoarm on
     - turn traversalOn off !!!!

And the property inspector is lousy in this aspect (too).
Better use one of the widgets available or make your own.

Greetings,
Wouter
