Resize forms utility and forms with pictures as background

Anyone use the AHRESIZE utility to resize a form dynamically who is also
using background images?

I have an app that creates electronic versions of manual forms. I
digitize the manual form and load it (at run time) as the form
background. then, on top of it I place the fields.

Seems to work well.

Now I am trying to allow use of the resize utility to allow the form to
be automatically resized to fit the screen resolution of each individual
user.

Unfortunately, I initially built the form I used "zoom" as the picture
sizing method. I think that does not work with the resizing utility -
at least the resizing doesn't result in the fields being aligned with
the positions on the form.

when I tried to use "clip" I find my image is way too large once scaled.

Suggestions?

Bob

Might be worth looking at a program called ShrinkerStretcher from Peters
software

Think Stretch might work with ADHresixe
