You mean:
set the icon of btn someBtn to (the id of img myName of stack myStack)
?
I think I tried "set the icon of btn someBtn to (nameOfImage of stack 
someStack)" or something to that effect.  I know I tried several 
combinations of things trying to get that image to take hold.  I know 
I tried specifying the stack it was in with some of the efforts. 
All the efforts failed.  In the end I gave up and cloned it for a new 
id.
Far as I could tell you could specify a host stack, but if Metacard 
had a graphic with the same id, it would still override.  Perhaps 
newer engines have refined this behavior?
