Well, this is basically what you are doing in your resizing examples -
you resize the draw widget according to the resize event generated by
the base.
I forgot to say that in my application I am only manually resizing the
widgets whose size isn't automatically managed by the tlb... My TLB
specifies COLUMN=1. It contains three base widgets in a column. The
middle base widget is a "bulletin board" base (it doesn't specify the
ROW or COLUMN keywords) so I have to set the positions and sizes of
the widgets it contains manually. It is only the size of those
widgets that I am updating (for example, my DRAW widget). In doing
so, this changes the size of the TLB.
A few years ago you posted about wanting to resize your TLB to match
the aspect ratio of the image you were displaying. You were running
into problems when using WIDGET_CONTROL to set the size of the TLB. I
ran into the same problem, and this is how I solved it...
best,
Mark
