The Scaling Table ('stab') Resource

You need to include a scaling table resource when you include a scale action-item type in your dialog control ('dctl') resource, which is described in the previous section. The values in the scaling table resource define the discrete page-size reduction values that a user can select for a Macintosh Printing Manager application.

Figure 6-19 shows the structure of the scaling table resource.

Figure 6-19 The scaling table resource

The scaling table resource contains a count of the scaling value entries and an array of values.

Note
The user can directly enter any scaling value into the scaling item box. The values in the scaling table are only used when the user clicks on the up and down arrows.
IMPORTANT
The values in the scaling table resource must be in ascending order.
