  16. Hi All
  17.  
  18.  
  19. Our application has dialog boxes which can be resized.  We are
  20. wondering what to do with our pushbuttons when a dialog box is
  21. resized.
  22.  
  23. One faction favours keeping the pushbuttons the same size, and
  24. resizing the gaps between them.  This seems to be how the
  25. FileSelectionBox works.
  26. Another faction favours keeping the gaps between the pushbuttons
  27. the same size, and resizing the buttons horizontally, but not
  28. vertically.
  29.  
  30. We can't find any specific reference to this in the Style Guide.
  31. So we wonder if anyone out there has any views?
  32.
