on pushDown
   repeat with x = 1 to the number of bgs
     set the top of bg x to the top of bg x + 22
   end repeat
   repeat with x = 1 to the number of cds
     go cd x
     repeat with n = 1 to the number of cd parts
       set the top of cd part n to the top of cd part n + 22
     end repeat
   end repeat
end pushDown

This is from a HyperCard-to-LC conversion tutorial. "Parts" is a HC 
synonym for "controls", which you can substitute if you want. The 
default menubar height used to be 22, but change that number if you need to.
