I am developing an iPad app for children. (It is a language learning app for ESL children as well as children with hearing loss who are learning to listen and speak). The app consists of cards.

put word 1 of (target) -- force target to be completely evaluated first

Thanks,

Code: Select all

set the label of this stack to "Radio Group"

Hi Dixie:
Thanks for your suggestion. But setting the label does not give me the title border bar effect (see attached image). I have set the border color to blue in the inspector. No luck still.

But there seems to be no way to do this; the group inspector has no options for this. My group simply shows the title abo...
