ResizeStack message

[Terence Heaford]

Thanks for your assistance.

Clearly, using resizeStack is not as straightforward as first thought.

I have just tried this handler in the card script:

on resizeStack tWidth,tHeight
   put tWidth & "," & tHeight
end resizeStack

It returned 1590,972

In the stack property inspector the stack width is 1590 (as above), the stack height is 950.

Why is there a difference?

Thanks

Terry
