Menubar Uncertainty

Robert's way is more straightforward. Don't hide and show the groups, rather, set them. Easier to read and manage.

This is normal for Macintosh. It's been discussed in multiple threads in the 
past, and tripped me up when I first came across it. Your problem is not that 
there is a separate menu for each card. The 20 pixel space at the top of the 
card that is not visible is normal. 

In your openCard handler (preOpenCard may also work) set the menuBar of this 
stack to thisCardsMenuBar
