Resizing within a window

Question

Hi. I am trying to replicate the resizing functionality provided in the
partition workshop. In the workshop you can click on the vertical bar that
separates the outline field on the left with the rest of the main window,
and change the outline field width.
So far, I have a grid field that contains my outline field defined as
Horizontally Stretchable and the vertical bar is a rectangle defined as
Horizontally Moveable. What happens currently is that although the bar can
be picked up and moved, when the bar is let go it reverts to its prior
position. What I think needs to happen is that the explicit grid field
width be set in code when the bar is moved. However, I cannot find an
event to pick up the x coordinate of where the bar is dropped.
Thanks for any suggestions, Jolyon Pawlyn

Hi,
I have to say first that BSPs will never cause problems in the browsers, it's HTMLB, etc. that might cause issues.
Anyway, I would suggest to use javascript window.resizeto(). See also
