Yes. We're doing
If this is too off topic, email me separately or point me to a place where
all this is documented, but it does seem germane to the use of Metacard, I
am pretty close to pulling together a demo. . . I just need to be able to

I've just discovered that the Japanese Win98 2nd-edition OS does not
come with Quicktime--my player objects aren't playing! Specifically, the
filename is set but the controller bar doesn't appear despite it's being
set to "show". (MC help writes that limited support is available for

Thank you. This will be very helpful!

There is a report generator stack available(mcrg.mc) from
ftp://ftp.metacard.com/metacard/
as well as a script you can use to print fields in MC 2.3. See the
scripts of the print field utility stack included with MC 2.3.

John,
AFAIK, there is nothing built in to automatically do this for you when printing.
However, the formattedHeight property will give you the height of a field
necessary to display all of its text. So you could set the height of your field(s) to
the formattedHeight before you print.
If you ne

Even if we don't know the figures for the other tools, does anyone

Back in the days when Hypercard was alive, I could print a report of marked
cards with dynamic window heights to show complete contents if the field
had scroll bars on the card. Can't figure out how to get metacard to do that.
