If you resize the Base pane of a customview in code by setting the prefwidth or prefheight properties and then update the display (resize the form by dragging an edge or clicking the maximize button) the Base pane reverts to the size originally defined in the designer.

The small example attached demonstrates.

Click the Resize button then resize the form.

This is not a bug.
It will happen with all views. Uncheck the Handle Resize Event option if you want to change the layout in your code or reapply the changes in the parent resize event.

Click to expand...

Funny, I don't recall having this issue.... But then again, I rarely resize my views in code.

Yes, just a memory lapse issue. I do remember the option being there now it's too late. I must have used it before.
