Not sure I understand what your problem is.
Do you have menuPick handlers for each button in "MyMenuBar"?
Is "MyMenuBar" grouped?
Are "the other cards" in several different stacks?
Do all "the other cards' " use the exact btns of "MyMenuBar"
Is "MyMenuBar"  in the same stack as "the other cards"?

I am doing somewhat of what you are doing.  It appears that menuPick
handlers are not set or set improperly. Also, if the other cards (in 
different stacks have a need for menu btns different from the btns in 
"MyMenuBar", the answer is more involved.  I am doing the more involved 
situation.

If your problem hasn't been solved, you can contact me off list.
