AcceleratedRendering States When Opening and Closing Stacks

[J. Landman Gay]

I doubt the layermode is an issue here. Layermode is relevant only when the 
card is open.

I'm not where I can review Mark's post about it, but I think 
acceleratedRendering basically tells the engine to buffer the content of 
designated controls so they will move smoothly. The layermode tells the 
engine what type of movement will be implemented. This is all done at the 
card level and the cache is flushed when the card closes or when the cache 
is full. A stack or card that isn't open has no effect on anything.

Someone correct me if I mangled the concept.
