[the] bottomRight of button ¬ to point set [the] bottomRight of field ¬ to point get [the] bottomRight of menuBar The bottomRight property returns or sets a point equal to items 3 and 4 of an element’s rectangle. If you set the bottomRight of an element, it moves; the element's size remains the same.

You can’t set the bottomRight of cards: use the rect, height, and width properties to resize the cards in a stack.

HyperCard determines the bottomRight of buttons, fields, and built-in windows relative to the top-left corner of the current card. It determines the bottomRight of the card window relative to the top-left corner of the screen with the menu bar.
