Hi Peter,

Personally, I tend to agree with Chris (Chris, Chris, can you hear me,
are you ok? <vbg>) that the more complex dialogs don't lend themselves
to resizing.

In any case, you can certainly feel free to log this suggestion and it
will be considered the same way that all other suggestions are
considered.

Best regards,

-SWM-

Again !

To Chris & Wil
Thanks for the input, but - dare I say it - the majority of
us (other) Vdf developers probably dont know how to
implement what you suggest, and we cannot keep
pestering the like's of you two 'guru's" for solutions.

To DAW - the solution provided to date is only HALF the
solution.

My question is - can you provide the COMPLETE solution
at a reasonable "time" cost, and - if so - will it be done ?

An answer to this WOULD be apprciated

Just a point of consideration and not a point of criticism,
If a dialog is to complex for resizing, maybe it could need some redisign to
simplify it.

So let me disagree then! <g>

Basically I think about all views/dialogs/whatever should be resizable, with a few exceptions. Right now, a resize is always for
100%, but it shouldnt be too hard to add properties like piHorizontalAnchorFactor (or whatever) so a container only rezises for
1/2,1/3 or another factor in a certain direction. That at least looks like a minor adjustment.
