From 33299a19d86948051eef442825c0b3241d1ac619 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: bobzel <zzzman@gmail.com>
Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2023 11:55:53 -0400
Subject: fixed isContentActive=false to apply to stacking collections. fixed
 pile view to be faster and to work in fit content panels. fixed issues with
 hidden docs and freeformviews that act as lightboxes - hidden docs can be
 shown as the lightbox doc without modifying the hidden flag to allow
 collection state to be restored.
