No, setting the height of a card should have no effect. The trick is to figure out the height of the stack when the menu bar is displayed in the stack, then set the height of the stack to that value from within the preOpenStack handler.

Sorry, I didn't say it right the first time. What I should have said was, I need to set the height of the stack to the height of the card. The height of the card always includes the height of the menu bar group. (Which may save you some time in the future, since there is nothing to "figure out"; the card height is always the same whether the card has been scrolled or not.)


Or am I still off base?

I have noticed that the menubar seems to resize the stack somewhere between preOpenStack and openStack. If you set the stack height in preOpenStack, you need to set it as if the menu bar were in the stack window (Windows/UNIX style), and if you set it in the openStack handler, you need to consider the platform and set it to the desired height for the platform you are on (which is a visible process).


Makes sense, and I could implement this. I suspect the problem has something to do with the distribution builder though, as it doesn't happen when I build in MetaCard. In MC, building a standalone is a transparent process where you don't have to consider the stack size at all.

For now, I'll set the height of the card rather than the stack. That is what you are describing, I think.
