You can use the Frame List Object Editor to change the size and orientation of all the frames in a frameset and to specify whether to display a border around it.
To change the appearance of a frameset, select the frameset border, open the Frame List Object Editor, and click the Appearance tab. To apply the new settings in the object editor, press Tab or close the object editor.

Size |
Change the size of a frameset. Choose Percent to make the size a percentage of the browser window's size. Choose Pixels to make the size a fixed amount that is not affected by the browser window's size. Choose Stars to make the size of the frameset use the remaining space in the page. This setting acts like a wildcard to match the remaining space with the settings of the other frames. For example, if you have other frames in the page, and you set the frameset to 40 percent and the other frames to Stars, the other frames uses the remaining 60 percent of the document. If more than one frame in a document has the Stars setting selected, the remaining space is divided up between them proportionately based on the value in the Size text box. |
Show Border |
Specify whether the frameset has a border or not. |
Tip You can also resize a group of frames using the mouse. Place the pointer over the border of the frameset until it changes into a double- headed arrow. Then drag the frameset to its new position.
