Does anyone know if the Geometry has been fixed in the latest version?
I really don't want to invest all the time editing the objects if it
still goes beswick!
The GM is good for what it does, but it can't anticipate all possible
combinations of object-ordering needs, and will fail in some cases.
Writing one's one geometry management is so simple that I never
understood why RunRev saddled themselves with writing 40k of GM script
just for a subset of needs.
Just use the resizeStack message, and you can trim most object resizing
to one-line calls using a custom function:
on resizeStack x,y
SetObjRect fld "Main","", "", x-20, y-100
put the bottom of fld "Main" into tBot
SetObjRect btn "OK", x-100, tBot+12, x-20,tBot+35
put the left of btn "OK" into tLeft
SetObjRect btn "Cancel", tLeft-100, tBot+12, tLeft-20,tBot+35
end resizeStack
on SetObjRect pObj
local tObj, r, i
--
put the long id of pObj into tObj
put the rect of tObj into r
repeat with i = 2 to 5
get param(i)
if it is not empty then put it into item (i-1) of r
end repeat
set the rect of tObj to r
end SetObjRect
Handling the native resizeStack directly can take a few minutes'
scripting, but leaves you totally in control and allows you to use
previously-adjusted objects to determine the positions of others, and
you know exactly the order they're processed in.
