Well, here's a really weird possible workaround - put everything into a 
group that is the size of the card, and set its lockLoc to true. Set 
the backgroundPattern of the *group*, not the stack, and then when you 
resize with the button, change the rect of the group *first* before you 
change the rest of the stack.

It's the only thing I could think of...
