Okay, testing a 3.x version of RR using code written in 2.x. I could previously move and Resize Cards is this still possibly.

Hi kevin,

Of course, it is still possible. Perhaps you could tell little more about what you are trying to do and how?

Best,

What I am doing.

In my prior application the Main Stack acted like a VNC or Remote Desktop window to the system. I allowed the user via the application control panel to set the background color to their preference and then same with the cards. The Cards acted basically as individual windows (user controls in VB and other systems) for applications. Each "Card" had "Min", "Max", "Close", "Control" buttons. The version currently allows the download of "application products" contain in "http" retrieved stacks whose cards have new or extended functionality. I would clone the cards to the mail stack save them and also version control them. The application and cards used a STOMP like protocol to communicate to the CURD components. It is not my original idea although it was quite successful it was a developer in Brazil that gave me the idea. Now they are asking for changes. I figured I would at least look at the 3.x RR before just using my 2.x to enhance it.

Might there be a library for this interface type now? Mine is a pan to maintain and not full featured.

Hi Kevin,

I can only assure you that it is still possible to resize cards and move stack windows around.
