use the effective rect, think thats what you're looking for.

Re: stack window rect...
Unfortunately, no, the effective rect of a stack is the same as the rect - the interior dimensions of the stack. As I recall prior posts to this list and elsewhere, I seem to recall that a property/function to provide the outer bounds of a stack window does not actually exists in LC 5.5.3 or earlier. Until something is added to future LC engines, I guess I'll just need to do the math myself. On 1/22/2013 10:50 AM, Mike Bonner wrote: use the effective rect, think thats what you're looking for.
