I'm afraid I am in alien territory here on the PC. Is there some

As I said, the only time this happens to me is when you "create"

Or did you mean that it hasn't been fixed in the 2.0 pre-beta? That

Why must I use this command, and why 20 milliseconds as opposed to 5

I am especially grateful that you went the extra mile to provide

Does anyone know how to get the RGB color triplet for a given color name?
For example the Color Names window shows ForestGreen to be 34,139,34
How would I get those numbers programmatically, that is without going
through the Color Names window?
That is

Greg,
P.S.
I was wrong to say you should avoid resizing the images in the
subStack for fear of altering the proportions. It is only the
formatted size that is needed and that is unaffected by resizing. So

Thanks Jim,
Your script will be of assistance in the laying out of the stack with
many icon buttons. I have been playing round with having a very small

small pictures at this stage.
Greg,
Here is a utilit
