Push Card

[andrew at midwestcoastmedia.com]

I learned HyperCard in K-12 during the '90s and moved to LiveCode a  
couple years ago. My coding efficiency and strategies have developed  
considerably over my past couple projects. I don't make a new card for  
everything, but easily end up with a dozen cards in a stack for most  
projects.

Are you saying that LC is better suited to just throw everything onto  
1 card then turn on&off the visibility of groups/etc.?
