I would like to create a custom "resize window" widget to replace the default OS look which is currently provided. You know, that thing we click on to drag the window and resize it to be larger/smaller. The problem is that I need to simulate the stacks outline as I drag. I can only do this

Undoing

Has anybody found a good way to make the standard "Undo" command apply to specific scripted routines? It seems pretty straightforward to store the "status quo ante" situation, and catch an undo command that would put things back. The problem is how to make that option expire as soon as it should

Not getting much of a responce so I'll rephrase the question. Who here can tell me how I can create a stack that uses a custom shape? I need some sort of external to change the shape right? I'd like to be a client of the person that can sell me the solution.
