I had to go to each card in the stack and type 'place background "my group" 
on this card' in order to get it there.  It almost seems like the menu item 
was doing a 'place group "my group" on this card' which only works if the 
group is on the same card.

I'm not sure what is up with my IDE.  I guess I should have exited 
revolution and restarted it.
