Sliding border images to match sliding field

[Cory_nz]

Hi people

I've got a large text field that is used for comments in one of my layouts. Around that field I have a border/field container made up of image files (i.e. top-left corner, top-centre, top-right corner ... etc - 8 images in total).

I've currently got the text field to slide up, depending on the amount of text within that field. What I need help with is getting the surrounding border images to match the sliding of the text field. When the text field slides up, I need the border images to slide up accordingly.

Anyone have any ideas?

thanks

Cory

Just to clarify, you are talking about print preview mode, correct?

Assuming that's the case...

It may have to do with how you group the border images - try grouping the bottom and corners together, and set to slide up. I'm not too sure about the sides of the border - I think I tried that once without any luck.

yeah - this is for the purpose of printing.

I've tried grouping different combinations but haven't had any luck yet.

Do you use images for the sides of the field?

These are fixed in size so cannot reduce down when the text field slides.

Horizontal images will slide up, but vertical images for the sides of the text field can only slide up, not reduce in size.

Ahh ok.

Guess I'll have to redesign the layout differently.

thanks for your help
