Description:

Handle the <desktopChanged> message to rearrange or reconfigure your

layout when the user changes their screen size or layout.

As the <desktopChanged> message can be sent by the OS at any time, it is

recommended that you handle the message in the main-stack of your

application.

>*Note:* The LiveCode IDE broadcasts the <desktopChanged> message to

> all main stacks that are currently open at the time the engine

> receives the notification from the OS - this is to improve consistency

> with behaviour in standalone applications.
