I tried this a bit, and it looks like the engine does resize the screen, but does not update the contents of the windows at the same time, but only a cycle later. that produces a very choppy resize visual :( Maybe a bug report could help? After all, the runrev guys are supposedly changing aroun

Yeah avoiding the geo manager is a good idea. Had a thought, though I don't know how to implement it.. Would it be possible to use snapshots during the resize as an overlay? Not sure how one would go about implementing this, but maybe someone will yay or nay it as an idea. On Tue, May 31, 2011 at

In my experience, the only way to get smooth (ish) resizing of a stack is to use the built-in resizer and set the liveResizing of the stack to true. Scaling by script is never as fast, and as you've seen, you will often see controls update along with the blank (white) background of stack as you dra
