Newbie Question - Card Size

Post by warrenk » Fri Sep 26, 2008 10:08 pm

How do I lock the card size so the user can't increase it? I thought it would be in the card properties...but can't locate it.

Thanks for any help!

the card size is defined by the stack size, and can't be set manually. Most likely you want the stack properties maxWidth and minWidth (same for height). Also look for the resizable property of the stack.
Various teststacks and stuff:

Hi Warren,

You probably want to look up the entry for the resizable property in the docs. Note that this is not a card but a stack property.

Best,

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I used the resizable property and this works great!
