Hammer H	No. You cannot resize nor move a control on an open dialog. You can only alter what's displayed in that control.

Code: alias redraw { var %t = $dialog($dname).x $dialog($dname).y $dialog($dname).cw $dialog($dname).ch dialog -sb $dname -10000 -10000 0 0 dialog -s $dname %t } Last edited by Collective; 17/05/04 10:07 PM.

tidy_trax T	He is saying that moving it off the screen, then back on fixes the icon problem.
