Multiple Stacks on Mobile

[Scott Rossi]

What's the main issue you're trying to solve?  A custom window shape or
using transitions in front of a fixed background?

AFAIK, you can't use the windowShape property on mobile stacks.  But you
might achieve the effect of one stack in front of another by moving your
card-based content into groups, and showing/hiding groups on a single card
(with the card acting as the background stack).  You can apply the same
transitions used when navigating between cards to showing/hiding groups.

However, the above might not be necessary.  You also might be able to
change your background stack into a background object that appears behind
all cards in your foreground stack.
