I vaguely remember a discussion about this once before but I need to ask
about this again.
The dictionary says "If the *lockLocation* of a group is false, the group is
automatically resized when the objects in it are moved, resized, hidden, or
shown." I'm not seeing that behavior. I have a combobox menu in a group
and the group's lockloc is false. When I resize the combobox, as as it hits
the boundary of the group, that parts of it that would be outside the group
disappear.
Am I misunderstanding something or is the dictionary wrong?
The size change won't be visible until the group needs to be redrawn on
screen. As mentioned, give one of the objects a little nudge, or else
just leave the card and come back. (Haven't tried it, but just locking
and then unlocking the screen might do it too.) Unlocked images behave
the same way, and it can be a surprise when you return to the card to
see that your unlocked image has suddenly grown huge.
