Trick for resizing MobGUI controls

Post by elanorb » Wed Sep 04, 2013 11:18 am

Hi all

I've done some experimentation and have found a way to resize MonGUI controls using the LiveCode Property Inspector, it's a little bit of a hack and if I come up with something better I'll let you know.

The steps are
- turn off "Disable auto geometry" in MobGUI
- add a MobGUI control
- open the LiveCode Property Inspector for the control
- set its width and/or height
- turn on Lock size and position
- click back on the stack

The components of the button will all resize.

I hope that helps, as I say if I find a neater way I will post here.

Kind regards
