I think I have a lot to learn about resolution and differences
between displays. I developed a stack that is 887 x 657 on an iMac
with a screen that is 1920 x 1200. I transferred the stack to work
to use on an older iMac whose display is 1024 x 768. What happens at
work is that the width of the stack displays fine but a strip along
the bottom (with all the darn buttons) is cut off. Should I have
known that this would happen? What am I doing wrong?
Either my math is wrong or your measurements are off. You say your stack is
657 pixels high, and your old iMac screen is 768 pixels high. You *should*
have 111 pixels to spare (minus the height of the menubar) for displaying
your stack. The only other thing I can think of is perhaps checking the
windowBoundingRect property.
I had a strange experience a couple of years ago where a stack that
should have fit on a screen always opened with the bottom 20 pixels cut
off when opened on a monitor with lower resolution, even though there
was enough room under the window to fit the full height. The only way I
found to fix it was to resize the stack on the low-resolution screen so
it looked right, and save it there. Then the next time I opened the
stack on any monitor, it always looked okay from then on.
I think it might be related to the bug that cuts off the bottom of some
stacks for reasons unknown. I have had a few of those and I bugzillaed
it a couple of years ago. The bug remains verified but unfixed. I've
seen occasional reports of it on the list sometimes. It's sporadic.
