Does anyone know how to find the size of the window's WFLG_SIZEGADGET resize gadget *BEFORE* opening the window?

What I want to do is create a resizable window with a specific "inner" size (excluding the border). Resizing the window after creation is NOT desirable, because it may take up to 1/10 of a second (6 frames!) to take effect.

(Note that this was posted in the Classic area, because I'd prefer a solution which also works on OS3.x)

Just can't stay away

@ChrisH

You are aware of WA_InnerWidth and WA_InnerHeight tags, right? It seems to me like they are the perfect solution to your problem (specify width and height of window content excluding window borders) and works on any AmigaOS >= 2.0.

No I was not aware of the "WA_InnerWidth and WA_InnerHeight" tags, but they sound like a perfect solution thanks!

struct DrawInfo *drawinfo = GetScreenDrawInfo (screen);

struct Image *sizeimg = NewObject (NULL,"sysiclass",

    SYSIA_DrawInfo,drawinfo,

    SYSIA_Which,SIZEIMAGE,

    TAG_END);



size_w = sizeimg->Width;

size_h = sizeimg->Height;



DisposeObject (sizeimg);

FreeScreenDrawInfo (screen,drawinfo);
