As has been mentioned on here earlier, setting the rect should take
care of everything - but for me, it actually doesn't. A strange bug
in my word processing program affects every once in awhile:
on closeStack I make a preferences file that contains, among other
things, the current rect of the stack. The next time the stack is
opened, however, it sometimes shrinks the vertical height of the
stack by about 20 pixels or so - I think this may be attributed to
having a menuBar group in the stack, at least on the Mac, since it
shrinks up the stack that much.
I have the rect-setting script execute on preOpenStack, so I'm
thinking if I moved it to openStack, it may make the rect be correct.
(it rhymes!)
My idea is changing the handler to openStack may fix this, especially
if you have a menuBar group... haven't tested it myself, though.
