You can always use the "rubber band" style of resize, in which case the window only needs to be told about the resize, and respond to it, when the user picks a size and drops the corner. In fact you can pretty easily do both, where the rubber band appears when the window hasn't managed to keep up, so the user still has a visual cue to what they are doing. --CJD _______________________________________________ wayland-devel mailing list wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel
