SDK C++: Is it possible to create resizable dock?

Anonymous

Hello,

 

I just started programming plugin in C++ for 3DS Max and what I would like to achieve is a dock that can be resized. What i found out is that I can create dialog that can float and be docked as well but if you set it resizable you can only resize it when it is floated. However, I would like it to be resizable when it is docked in addition to being resizable when it is floating.

 

Thanks in advance 🙂

hmm.. docked where exactly? do you mean the viewport shall resize on your dialog size? I cannot imagine this would work.

I think the best you can achieve is something like the command panel with rollouts, but it cannot be resized in width.

my users prefer floating modal and sizeable windows.
