Why the messages is not passed along to the card, or why they are sent continuously, is a mystery.
For most of LC/Rev/MC's life, the resizeControl message was consistently sent only after the user stopped performing a resize action with the pointer tool.
But in v3.5 RunRev introduced behaviors and some new enhancements to group objects to allow folks to make custom controls like the DataGrid.
In addition to being sent continuously as the control is resized (to allow your custom control to adjust its contents), that message is also sent to the control whenever it's resized by any means, such as a script adjusting its rect, rather than strictly when the user is interacting with it using the pointer tool.
Useful as these enhancements are, it seems they're described only in the engine change log and the Dictionary entry for the resizeControl message hasn't been updated.
Anyone here got time to either add a user comment to that entry and/or file a documentation bug report at the RQCC?
