      From: liz@paradoxcommunity.com              Make sure your forms are all the same size, or pick the largest form.       Temporarily put code on the form to get the app size. Run the form,       position form and app as desired. Trigger the code, record the size of       the app, put code in init to size the app.              That's what I do. I also set the position of the app window (you can       also read size and position on exit, store them for the user, and       restore them on start-up - it's not hard (assuming your form has a       startup script or form).              Liz                     Bjorn Sagbakken wrote:       > Enlightening and interesting, and of course absolutely right.       >       > But how to use opal to resize the Paradox outer shell (the Paradox windows       > application) to fit the form precisely?       >       > With Paradox 11 I have problems with the form zoom property because       > text-editing gets a weird lag with the cursor(Bertil has described and       > confirmed this phenomena) So with this problem in mind there is almost a       > *must* to use a form scale of 100%.
