You and Ben are right, I misspoke. I was thinking of setting the menubar 
of a stack. If you're on a Mac then that works; if you're on Windows 
then you do need to reproduce the menu on the substack in order to place it.

In the message box:

   set the menubar of stack "mySubstack" to "Menubar 1"

The actual group doesn't appear on the card, which is why it doesn't 
work on Windows. On a Mac the system menu will show the correct menu.
