Hi Irv -
Not sure what is happening with the vector shape - but if I
understand the problem - need for more air around the text, why not
set the margin of the field member? You can set it quite high - more
than what is in the GUI options. Maybe this will help. The syntax is:
member("test").margin = 14
member("test").border = 1
happy new. . .
