Re: Stupid Question Again - Proportional Scaling

Never tried to script that. It's *eventually* simple -- as always with LC. Here again a little bit optimised, changing the size also by the scrollWheel: -- 1. Don't use a resizestack handler -- 2. Set resizable of the stack to FALSE local l0, t0, ff on mouseDown put the long id of the target

Re: Stupid Question Again - Proportional Scaling

I think he wants to use window resizing as an automatic zoom, like a magnifying glass. Google Maps does this with + and - buttons but doesn't resize the window content to fit. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com On March 18,
