Hi List,
I don't post here very often, but I wanted to share this little plugin tool
I've made and have been using.
The timing seems right, what with all the discussion of screen resolutions and
such.
ResTool is a small palette for resizing your stack to a number of standard
screen dimensions.
You can switch from portrait to landscape orientations, subtract an arbitrary
number of pixels to account for a status bar, and move the stack around on the
screen. There are buttons to shift the stack up and down, left and
right--useful, for example, if you are working on a laptop or smaller screen
and developing a stack meant for HD1080 resolution in portrait orientation.
(That's exactly what got me started on this in the first place.)
There is a substack with a chart of common video standards and aspect ratios, and a
couple of useful tables (via the "Ref" button.)
No documentation, really, but the tooltips should help if anything isn't
obvious.
Put it your Plugins folder, of course.

If you have any suggestions, additions or edits, please feel free to modify it
as you see fit, or send me such ideas. I hope some of you may find it useful.
Nicely done - thanks for posting that.
