Dynamically Changing the Height of Stationery (11/19/96)

Q: How can I dynamically change the height of my roll-style stationery?

A: To dynamically change the height of roll-style stationery you will need to change the target's height slot, flush the data, and then do a re-target. For instance, you might have the following method in your stationery:

    DoResize: func( newHeight )
    begin
        target.height := newHeight;
        :FlushData();
        :DoRetarget();

end;
