bottomRight

Type

property

Summary

Specifies the location of the specified object's lower right corner.

Syntax

set the bottomRight of <object> to right,bottom

Description

Use the bottomRight property to change the placement of a control or window.

The bottomRight of a stack is in absolute (screen) coordinates. The first item (the right) of a card's bottomRight property is always the width of the stack window; the second item (the bottom) is always the height of the stack window. The bottomRight of a group or control is in relative (window) coordinates.

In window coordinates, the point 0,0 is at the top left of the stack window. In screen coordinates, the point 0,0 is at the top left of the screen.

Changing the bottomRight of an object moves it to the new position without resizing it. To change an object's size, set its height, width, or rectangle properties.

Important

The order of the bottom and right parameters is reversed compared to the property name: right comes first, then bottom.

Examples

set the bottomRight of scrollbar "Master" to 400,200

set the bottomRight of field "Follower" to the mouseLoc
