How to implement resizable window by units of space

I would like one of my split panel�s side (for example right one) to be resizable only by a certain amount of space (for example 400 pixels) in both directions � horizontal and vertical.
Any clue how can I accomplish this?.
Janusz

But what I want is force the user to resize my right panel in predefined units (e.g. in pixels 400, 800, 1200, 1600�). For example if the user tries to resize my panel to the right 50 pixels, the window would automatically resize to 400 pixels (provided there is that much space on the screen), and after that the user could resize the panel to another 400 (800 pixels from starting point) pixels.
If I set just minimum of my right panel to e.g. 400 pixels then the user can resize it to 400, 401, 402... to the maximum value - but that is not what I want.

How do i drag icons and how do i resize windows

this is my first laptop having been used to emacs before. I can't figure out how to drag items or resize windows when not using a mouse and can't find such simple instructions in the manual.
thanks.

In addition to the method described by Jim, you can set options in the Keyboard & Mouse preference panel (in System Preferences) that allow you to get mouse clicks and click lock using the trackpad. Check out those options, many people find they make the trackpad a lot more useful.

How do i resize windows partition?

I am sorry if this sounds like a question that has been answered numerous times, but the answers I have read thus far have not helped me at all. I am more confused than ever and would appreciate anyone who can dumb this down so that I can spend the next few hours methodically: 1. resize the boot camp partition from 40GB to 80GB. 2. Install Windows 7 3. Get on with my life.
Now, the Windows side (NTFS) of my MAC Book Pro doesn't have much on it and I have backed up the documents to an external hard drive. The apps on it can be reinstalled if I have to. Since my Windows 7 is an upgrade to awful Vista, I guess I have to reinstall Vista before I can install 7. I have read about WinClone and quite frankly don't understand at all what to do. I want to know if it would not be simpler to remove all apps and docs from the windows side, then remove the partition completely and start anew? If so, does that mean that I would use disk utility in OS to partition the drive? OR do I start BootCamp, partition, then install Vista?
Thank you.

don't use disk utility to do anything with the windows partition. it should only be modified using bootcamp assistant.
if you don't care about keeping your current windows install you can do the following.
1. run bootcamp assistant and remove the bootcamp partition.
2. then run bootcamp assistant again to create a new bootcamp partition of the size you want.
3. from here you need to install windows 7 on the newly created empty bootcamp partition. if your windows 7 can only be installed over an existing vista install you'll have to install vista first.
I'm really not familiar with windows upgrade processes and I'm not sure if this is necessary. also, keep in mind that even though many people have installed windows 7 in bootcamp, it is not yet officially supported by apple. apple will release windows 7 drivers for bootcamp later this year

How to move a window to another, existing space that already has windows

NOT happy with the new Mission Control. Give me back spaces!
I have been using virtual desktops (VDT) for years and I often work 14 to 18 hours a day on my mac..
I can reorder my spaces in MC but that seems to be about all I can do and it really is ******* me off.
I need to be able to drag a single window from 1 space to another space where I already have another application running. This was TRIVIAL in SPACES but seems impossible in MC.
example: I have a text file of notes in vi in one VDT and in another I have a browser window open to a customer location where I need to use or add to those notes with some complexity. I want to move that notes window from the VDT that it is in (because there are other apps there) to the current VDT so that I can easily use the notes and the browser together. I do NOT want to have to make the stupid vi window in ALL spaces. How do I do this?
another example: I have a browser with multiple tabs and I want to move ONE of them to another VDT. I can pull the tab to make another window.. But I can't move just that tab to another VDT!! How can I do that?
Please please PLEASE fix this in Mountain Lion !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have to start from the Desktop where the window is currently living to move it to another Desktop.
If you are using Safari in Full Screen, that screen is its own desktop and can't be moved to another desktop. If you are not in Full screen, go to the desktop that hosts the window and drag it to another Desktop in MC.

Preview app auto-resize window

Shift-command-R resizes the image to fit window. How do you resize window to fit an image at it's original size? What a glaring oversight by Apple.

I don't need the image to be full screen, just the window. And the window is not technically full screen, because you can still see the window borders and the panels. I want the image window with the different image tabs to open as big as my screen. I want the edges to come right up next to my panels and the bottom to go down to the bottom of my screen. For example: I use Mac and when you close a finder window and open a new one, it will open at the same size that you closed it. If you resize it, lets say, to fill your entire screen, close it and then reopen it, it will open the same size as you closed it. I don't want photoshop to open new image windows to the same dimension as the image. I want a grey screen to cover my entire monitor just like in CS3 and before. I really like the tabs, but I want the window to open bigger with grey space arround the image.

Window resizing and how to keep the window at that size.

Having trouble with the applications window not staying the same size after I resize it. I know that dragging the corner will resize as well as the green button, but after I close it, it reverts back the small window and not to the resized window after I have done the above. Went to an apple store and no one there knew how to fix it or maybe I didn't explain myself very well.

I assume you're opening the Applications folder in a separate window through an alias or a Dock icon... if so, just open it, move and resize it the way you want, then immediately close it again. That should do the trick.

How do U resize a window in start up

Im making an applet that draws somehting and my drawing is bigger than my applet i want to only view it in a n applet viewer so how do i resize the window automaticly so at start up i get a big enough window to fit my drawing in.

try n add this in ur html file.
hope it helps.
An applets width and height properties are only available in Internet Explorer 4 - and then they are only read only.
The only possible way is to trap the resize event using the documents onResize event handler in Netscape Navigator 4 and Internet Explorer 4 to reload the page:
<HTML>
<body onResize="document.history.go(0)">
<applet width="100%" height="100%">
</applet>
</body>
</html>

HT4818 how to resize windows partition

How do you resize the windows partition in boot camp?

iF you have already created the Windows partition, you can't resize it. To do it, you have to use an app like Paragon Camptune, that will allow you to resize your Windows volume > http://www.paragon-software.com/downloads/camptune.html
The other option is to delete Windows and create the new partition with the size you want in Windows. Make a backup of your data before doing this

I agree it is a very bad and wasteful design especially for users on small laptop screens.
You can drag it to whatever shape you want from the bottom left corner.
Click on the paintbrush to make the Format side panel disappear. However you will need to use that side panel for most formatting.

Also tried double-clicking-- nothing happened.
I tried both these suggestions with new mail and old saved mail. Nothing happened....
What to do?? What to do??? I know it can be done somehow... or maybe it was with Windows ??
Also regarding Klaus' comment: The text is too big, too wide-spread to all appear when I enlarge the window to the max. Somehow the text must be "shrunk" to fit within the window.
