How to go to a stack without a flash

[Scott Rossi]

Without knowing what's going on in your stacks, it's tough to know for
sure, but it's unlikely you're doing anything "wrong".  In addition to
what Marty suggested, another option is to set the blendLevel of a stack
to 100 before making it visible, and the setting (or ramping) the stack's
blendLevel to 0. Sometimes it also helps to open at stack at a negative
location (off screen) before displaying it, but setting the blendLevel
should eliminate any flashing.
