Scripting the Geometry Manager
I have a field which correctly adjusts its size in response to resizing of the window via the geometry manager. This works fine but I would also like to optionally insert another object between the field and the bottom of the window. I can't see where to script the settings in the geometry manager for an object. The effect I want is similar to drawers in OS X but I can't wait for Rev 2.0 which I believe has this feature. If I could script an object's geo manager setting, show/hide the new object, resize window, then update the screen this would work. Thanks, Bill Vlahos Bill Vlahos IT Manager, AeroVironment Inc.

Thanks, Bill Vlahos Hi Bill, You'll have to do a bit of digging, but I think that data is stored in the custom property cRevGeometry[master,scaleBottomDistance] of the object. So I think if you change that, along with the corresponding item in the custom property cRevGeometry[master,expectedRect] you should be able to trick the Geometry Manager into resizing things correctly upon 'revUpdateGeometry'. Hope this helped, Jan Schenkel. = As we grow older, we grow both wiser and more foolish at the same time. (La Rochefoucauld) __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

Come to think of it, this is a good case for the profile manager if you're not using it for other purposes: simply define a profile DrawerOpened and set everything up under that profile, and switch between Master and DrawerOpened by changing the cRevGeneral[profile] of the objects.
