Why can't I resize my script more?

How can I resize my script as much as the script with the red square (see picture below)?

You can see my script on the left. So what I want to do is to resize my script as thin as the script highlighted with the red square.

Someone know how to do this?

Hi there, that's actually my script on the right.

So it's a mix of spacing and margins.

win.spacing=1; // min spacing between elements. 1 pixel

win.margins=[0,0,0,0] // margins like a picture frame around outermost items and window.

This propogates down to groups and panels, so if buttons in a group, adjust those properties for the panel.

Also you need to be careful about knowing about Automatic layout and hard coding some of this stuff, they may conflict.

I like to hard code some stuff for more control, but it can take longer to bug check and fix than letting it automatically layout.

Peter Kahrel has a good pdf online if you google it and gives a good explanation of all the basic ui concepts.
