on opencard revUpdateGeometry end opencard
Note: it is generally saver to write your own resize handlers. The geometry manger will sooner or later mess up, and strew your objects into random locations (negative or huge numbers, offscreen, huge mess!). I suggest to instead write your own resize code. That is a bit more upfront, but at least you know what goes wrong when it doesn't look as it should. For example: --in the card script on openCard resizeStack the width of this card, the height of this card end openCard --resizeStack is a built in handler --it also happens when the user uses the OS-given resize capabilities of a window on resizeStack theWidth theHeight set the rect of field "example" to 0,64,theWidth,theHeight --fills whole card, leaves space for controls at top set the right of button "example" to (theWidth - 16) -- right align a button end resizeStack On 3 Nov 2011, at 18:46, John Brozycki wrote: > Hello, > > Given a resizable stack with, say, two cards that both have objects that have > their geometry set to scale on resize (like a text field) what is the best > way to get objects on card 2 to automatically resize when card one is resized > and then a button is selected to go to card 2?
