I have a row of icons and have been able to use the Geometry Manager to spread them out as the window is resized. However, I have another button and graphic that need to move and be resized to span the width of a subgroup of the icons.

The Geometry Mangers doesn't seem to be able to do this. It appears to move the object so the right sides align but doesn't resize it even though it is supposed to scale it with anchors of the two outermost buttons. It acts as thought it is positioning instead of scaling.

To get around this I put an on resizeStack handler that calculates the rects, lefts, and rights of various objects and then sets the rects of the buttons and lines.

This works but while the action of the objects being moved via the Geometry Manager is smooth, the action of the objects my handler does is jerky. Worse than just being jerky it sometimes doesn't get the final position correct.

Here is the code in the stack script:
on resizeStack
   set the itemDelimiter to comma
   put the rect of graphic "Line" into tRectLine
   put the left of button "Doctors" into item 1 of tRectLine
   put the right of button "History" into item 3 of tRectLine
   set the rect of graphic "Line" to tRectLine
   pass resizeStack
end resizeStack
