Anyone know of an easy way to make a no title dialog resizable?

Check the source code archive here at VDSWorld. I'm pretty sure there's one or two examples for that already.

Well darn it... I had to dig out my old back up drive, but if you do need an example, I can search my archives here now.

Sure if you have something. I was only able to make something work resizing from right and bottom to resize the window.
Here is the app if you want to check it out. It's called Pixel Block and I made it to measure things on my screen. No install, just run. Right click on the window for a menu.

By the way, Pixel Block is a great program!! I have a really old program (12+ years) called 'Screen Calipers' I was using previously. Found it! It's no longer free, and the new interface looks fancy. My version is a blue and red thing

You'll need to add this to the end of your resize loop
| Code: |
%%k = @strdel(@winexists(@dlgtext()),1,1)
loadlib user32.dll
%P = @lib(user32,InvalidateRect,BOOL:,INT:%%k,0,1)
%P = @lib(user32,UpdateWindow,BOOL:,INT:%%k)
freelib user32.dll
|
Refreshes the window. Not compatible with savepos type for some reason. |

Cool, thanks! Now I have to adjust for the window border, but this is nicer then the way I have it now and this will come in handy for other things!

Also, BTW I have a copy of Screen Calipers the free version if you want it. I used that a lot also, still do in some cases, but I like mine better.
