Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Solution for NS6 getContentHeight/Width

[wes c. <we...@we...>]

I tried this widget and noticed your border settings were ordered top,
bottom, left, right.

personally find it helpful to have most widgets work the same way,
otherwise liked the interface and documentation, along with the widget.
