LiveCode IDE is resizing my stack!?

[Ian Wood]

I'm pretty sure that's simply following the recommended behaviour for apps larger than the screen dimensions on OS X. You'll see exactly the same thing when dragging application windows (LC or otherwise) from a larger screen to a smaller screen.

In other words this may be an OS-level issue.

I don't want this to happen. I need it to be the actual size, even if it's partially obscured by something else (the dock, for example). Can I prevent this behavior somehow? And this is not the strange Mac menu bar issue where the stack resizes to compensate for a menu. I don't even have a menu set on this stack.
