[Squeakland] resizing doesn't stick in holder animation

[Arvind Grover]

I have tried this: the items in the holder are larger, and the ball is
very small. I have ball look like holders player at cursor, and then
holder's cursor increase by 1.

When the animation begins, the ball grows to the larger shapes in the
holder. Even if I resize them all to a tiny size, the animation makes it
jump back to their original sizes.

Dreyfuss's suggestion of changing the scale factor (<1 to make it
smaller) on the ball object worked perfectly.

Thanks,
arvind

Instead of resizing the drawings in the holder, try resizing the player 
that is changing its costumes. I.e. if the script looks like:

holder's cursor increase by 1
ball look like holder's player at cursor

then resize "ball". Whatever scaling ball has is applied to its
costumes.

Cheers,

Alan
