Re: Distortion resizing group of vector graphics

Yup. Otherwise you incur generational loss. Like editing and saving a JPEG 
multiple times on high compression.

I understand that your advice is correct
but the script in the stack should (at least
in theory) be exactly equivalent to store all
rects and set controls position and size
after resize is done.

In practice, the script that I posted fails
under some circunstances and I want to
know which these circunstances are.
Maybe, just maybe, there is a workaround
to detect and correct these failures
before setting the new size and position
of all controls in card.

Re: Distortion resizing group of vector graphics

The only method I've found to accomplish this is to store all original rects 
before doing any scaling, and base all size computations on the stored 
dimensions until the next resize event.  It requires a little effort, but it 
works.
