Handler:

on sizeWindow
   statements
end sizeWindow

HyperCard sends the sizeWindow message to the current card when the user or a script resizes the window. In many cases, HyperCard will send a moveWindow message immediately after a sizeWindow message.

Here are the ways a window can be resized:

• The user resizes the window using the size box. • The user resizes the window using the Scroll window. • The user clicks the zoom box, and the zoom changes the window size. • A handler sets the rect of the card window to a new size. • A handler resizes all the cards in a stack by setting the rect of the card to a new size.
