Window rect

As this is only for a plugin I'll be posting soon I'm only going to go to
the trouble of allowing the user to set the top and border pixels for each
of the stack styles. This means the user will just need to try it a few
times but it doesn't take long.

FYI the plugin (Screen Grabber) is something I've developed to aid in taking
screenshots to be used in user manual's and promotions etc. You can use it
to take, store and export snapshots of all, the current or specific cards of
any open stack. You can also choose to hide Rev during the snapshot and
select from screen rect, stack rect, estimated window rect and the window
bounding rect.

Cheers
