Shari,

There is one simple solution but it's not for every use...
though I dont see why not... Here's the script I include in all my option 
buttons:

on mouseenter
  -- any preconfig
  --
  get the number of lines in me
  if it > the menulines of me then set the menulines of me to it
  pass mouseenter
end mouseenter

this will make the first x lines always visible in your menu.

I've encountered an oddity with an option button.

The button has 7 lines of choices - always.  This never varies. 
Though the text of the choices do change.

On openCard, it takes the contents of a field, which is the current 7 
choices, and puts it in the button.

Most of the time, the button works fine.  But every so often, when 
you click on the button, it only shows 5 choices, with a scrollbar to 
get to the other 2, and clicking on the scrollbar either doesn't 
work, or produces an error.  The button almost looks like a field 
with the scrollbar, instead of an option button.  If you leave the 
card and come back, sometimes it will go back to the way it should be.

Has anyone encountered this?  Is there a fix?
