Correct. A referenced image (where you assign a file path to an image) requires the image to present somewhere outside the stack. An imported image becomes part of a stack. Regards, Scott Rossi Creative Director Tactile Media, UX/UI Design On 4/11/14 5:12 PM, "la...@significantplanet.org"

Thanks Kay for that input. The fact is, the stack which I'm setting up is supposed to show a drawing space (for graphs generated by mathematical formulae). It doesn't really matter if the Windows menu intrudes into the drawing space, since it doesn't occupy the whole horizontal width of the stac

Hi Graham, Instead of setting the editMenus to false, you can also set the defaultMenubar to the name of the group that you want to use as a menu and then set the visible of the group to false. This way, the stack size doesn't change. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consul

I'm no expert with cross platform design, but, I thought the specific purpose of the editMenu property was so you can see and edit your menu if you need to. This should only be used whilst in the IDE; it should be false in your standalone. As for the 30 pixels, which I've seen reported as 27 elsew
