Create re-sizable Modeless dialog in FrameMaker

[Abhijeet Narvekar]

Hi,

I am developing a dialog based client for FrameMaker.
I Created a dialog using .dre file to generate .dl and .xdi files

In my client code I opened the dialog using F_ApiOpenResource(FO_DialogResource, (ConStringT)"MYDIALOG");

and then F_ApiModelessDialog(MYDIALOG, dlgId); to display the dialog. The dialog appears as expected.

How do I make the FM POD(Modeless dialog) re-sizable?

Examples FM POD's for Markers, fonts, insets are all re-sizable. I want to achieve same behavior for my custom dialog.

Thanks,
Abhijeet

Using the gripperbar property enables the resizing.

F_ApiSetInt(FV_SessionId, dlgId, FP_ResizeGripperBarVisibility, FV_DIALOG_GRIPPERBAR_TRUE);

F_ApiSetInt(FV_SessionId, dlgId, FP_ResizeGripperPos, FV_DIALOG_RESIZEGRIPPERPOS_BELOW);

Cheers
Abhijeet
