Hi Ben,<br>
<br>
Can you provide any insights to Chris seeing I haven't modified this
portion of the code at all from what you put together originally. Let
me know otherwise I'll try to find some time this weekend to look at
this.<br>

<br>Subject: Re: LookEnhancements enhancement<br>To: Squeak List <<a href="mailto:squeak-dev@lists.squeakfoundation.org">squeak-dev@lists.squeakfoundation.org</a>><br><br></span>John, as much as I love the look, I am very quickly starting miss the window
<br>resizing functionality, e.g. being able to resize in any direction. With<br>LookEnhancements, windows that are not positioned in the upper-left of the<br>screen require at least twice as many gestures to resize, be it larger or
<br>smaller.<br><br>Worse, many times all I want to do is quickly "peek" at the contents of a short<br>window against the bottom-edge of the screen (for example, the Transcript in my<br>screen-shot at <a href="http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/5729)">
http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/5729)</a>. Before, I could<br>simply drag the top edge to size it up, peek at what I need to peek at and,<br>without ever letting go of the mouse button, roll it back down to where it was;
<br>leaving the layout of my windows intact. With LookEnhancements its three-times<br>as many gestures to do this.<br><br>Window moving and sizing is an area where Squeak's performance isn't exactly<br>light and snappy, so requiring these extra gestures really makes the system
<br>feel "heavy" and sluggish and tiring.<br><br>Can you give me a hint or pointer in the code to where/how I can restore the<br>ability to resize in any direction?<br><br>Thank you!<br> Chris<br><br><br><br>--
