I solve this by resizing the drawer in my script before opening it. e.g.

on openAlarmsDrawer
   set the height of stack "Alarms" to the height of stack "Main" - 40
   drawer stack "Alarms"
end openAlarmsDrawer

It's always good to remember that you can refer to & edit stacks that  
are not yet officially open.
