I am converting a HyperCard stack to rev and I wanted to go beyond the old classic Mac 9-inch screen size. I put a centerme command in the openstack script, but I would also like to size the screen automatically to a size that is standard these days. I don't know how to do that. Is there a good, all-round screen size, and how do I set that as a default for my stack?
800 X 600 is safe to assume as a minimum size that 99.9% of users can display nowadays. More common is 1028 X 764. You can get the size of the user's screen with the screenRect function and use it to set the size of your stack window:
set the rect of this stack to the screenRect
But you'll also how to figure out how to resize/reposition controls to fit into the new size. The Geometry Manager can help in this, but can be finicky.
