I am a big fan of Daniel Wabyick’s dynamically resizing window example. ( http://www.wabysabi.com/blog/2008/01/29/example-air-app-dynamically-resizing-windows-based-on-content-area/ ). A simple and elegant solution to accommodate dynamically expanding and contracting windows in an AIR application.
I’ve since extended this example to fill two extra requirements. The first of these was to add a gripper that allows users to resize the window; the focus of this article. The second was to allow the window to dynamically resize, but to keep it’s content the same, which I will cover in the future.
