Yep, that's what I was doing initially but was looking for a way to make it happen without actually knowing the height and width.
I think I have this working now. I made sure that the topmost control on each card always had it's topleft set to 10,10 , then I add 20 to each of the formatted height and formatted width during preOpenCard. That seems to work just fine.
