Making a Delphi form sizable without changing BorderStyle

Don’t you just hate it when you sit in front of a 24″ monitor and have to use a form that is the size of a postage stamp?

GExperts has got a nifty feature where it makes forms of the Delphi IDE sizable that aren’t by default.

    So, will there be a Christmas release of GExperts then? Or do I really need to compile it myself again?

    Since compiling it is so easy...  :)

    Daniela Osterhagen I don't know. Erik has been rather quiet lately, so I doubt that an official release is imminent. I might do another experimental one, but first I'll have to solve a problem with umlauts in the formatter in Delphi 6 (probably also Delphi 7) that was reported. I guess it's yet another Unicode related issue.

    Nicholas Ring yes, but many people, even though they are programmers themselves, prefer precompiled binaries. I'm no exception myself, because I found that most projects require some changes before compiling actually works.

    Interesting that you kept digging in... hopefully all forms are taken care by now ;-)
