NEW WITH THE APPEARANCE MANAGER

Sizes a dialog item.

pascal OSErr SizeDialogItem (
                     DialogPtr inDialog,
                     SInt16 inItemNo,
                     SInt16 inHeight,
                     SInt16 inWidth);

inDialog

A pointer to a dialog structure.

inItemNo

A signed 16-bit integer representing the dialog item number within the item list.

inHeight

A signed 16-bit integer representing the desired height (in pixels) of the dialog item's control rectangle.

inWidth

A signed 16-bit integer representing the desired width (in pixels) of the dialog item's control rectangle.

function result

A result code; see "Result Codes".

DISCUSSION

The SizeDialogItem function resizes a dialog item to a specified size. If the dialog item is a control, the control rectangle and the dialog item rectangle (maintained by the Dialog Manager) are always the same.
