-stretchFields
(As of 3.2.001.06)
Control whether fields or text can stretch vertically to the parent.
Syntax
-stretchFields Y|N
Description
Control whether Merge allows fields to stretch vertically; in the same way, DocOrigin stretches vertical lines that touch a pane edge-to-edge. This is useful when fields are used to define the object borders of a table. Applying -stretchFields Y causes the fields that touch a pane edge-to-edge to extend the height of the pane. Hence, all cells match in the pane. The default setting is N, i.e., do not stretch.
As of 3.3.003.01 -stretchFields can be applied as a tag in Design, allowing control at the object level. Note that child objects of the tagged object are affected.
