I'm sorry -- I'm not better than the documentation for these
questions. I've worked thru that all before and there is a way to make
everything work, but I've lost the memory of which methods fit with
which ones in precisely which way.

On the positive side, the vertical-pasteboard% classes are managing
some of this for you so if they work, perhaps you can avoid all of the
detail I've since forgotten.....
