Drag-Window Size

[GabSt]

So on a normal window, you change the window size by dragging the bottom-right corner.

Is there any way to make this possible on an app that doesn't have a window frame or header?

Using the window control object and some simple math and detector actives, yes it is possible.

Have you tried the Window Control Object? If you have an active object at the edge of the screen in your application, I'm sure you can hook it up with the resizing functions of the Window Control Object when pressed with the mouse.

Weird, when I use the Window Control Object, the whole window frame shakes...

EDIT:

Here are the events I am using:

IF
º Repeat while mouse-key is pressed
º Mouse Pointer is over "Active"

THEN
-Set horizontal size to Xmouse
-Set vertical size to Ymouse

Strange, what are you doing to the frame in the events?

[GabSt]

Here are the events I am using:

IF
º Repeat while mouse-key is pressed
º Mouse Pointer is over "Active"

THEN
-Set horizontal size to Xmouse
-Set vertical size to Ymouse

[Brandon]

THEN
-Set horizontal size to Xmouse
-Set vertical size to Ymouse

The problem with this is that if you drag the active outside the frame, it doesn't register it. I don't have the shaking problem with those events, but it doesn't work either. I'm guessing it has to do with the active.

You can try:
º On Click
- Set Flag 0 on

º Flag 0 is on
- Set Xpos to XMouse
- Set Ypos to YMouse

º [X]Repeat while mouse button is pressed
- Set Flag 0 off

that's for dragging. Also, setting the size of the window to XMouse or YMouse won't work. You need to set the width to

XMouse-Horizontal Position of the Window

and the height to

YMouse-Vertical Position
