How can I redraw objects after the user has resized the stack, but not
continuously during the resize? Releasing the mouse at the end of a
resize does not appear to send a mouseUp message.
Normal window resizing is handled by the OS, so doesn't generate mouse
events.
One way to get close to what you request is to only relayout your
objects if the user has not changed the size within a short period.
Something like:
```
local sPendingResizeId
constant kResizeTimeout = 20
on resizeStack pWidth, pHeight
/* If there is already a deferred request to resize then cancel. */
if sPendingResizeId is not empty then
cancel sPendingResizeId
end if
/* Defer the request to resize for a further period. */
send "_doResizeStack pWidth, pHeight" to me in kResizeTimeout
milliseconds
put the result into sPendingResizeId
end resizeStack
on _doResizeStack pWidth, pHeight
lock screen
... do relayout ...
unlock screen
end _doResizeStack
```
This defers the relayout code until a resize stack message has not been
sent for the timeout interval.
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
