> I haven’t been able to reproduce an issue with the framework setting the height of a rectangle by means of a timer. Here’s a demo project that might help: [Timer Test.xojo\_xml\_project](https://www.dropbox.com/s/hnzwbyqe094qice/Timer%20Test.xojo_xml_project?dl=1)

Tim, you just need to add this line:

```
ctlRect.BackgroundColor = color.Blue

```

to your Run event and you will see that the rectangle doesn’t change size because it reverts back to the defaults set in the IDE.

Same happens with Label, and other controls like Buttons, etc. See [Bug while trying to move text?](https://forum.xojo.com/t/bug-while-trying-to-move-text/61372) and case 61757

Edit: as mentioned by Hector Marroquin, you can add another line:

```
ctlRect.UpdateBrowser

```

but sometimes you can see it “refresh or glitch” because the rectangle is resized to the IDE settings and then again to the new height set by your timer.
