Actually that only has an effect on Panther, and tells the Window Server to drag the window itself, rather than calling into the application to do it. It will actually prevent you from doing life resizing (at least in real time) as it causes far fewer bounds changing events to be sent. Standard windows should use the kWindowLiveResizeAttribute attribute (which I forgot to mention before) to get live resizing.

I use both flags and am not entirely convinced that I'm getting fewer BoundsChanging during live resize -- AFAICT kWindowAsyncDragAttribute does not affect the behaviour of resizing, only of dragging. The downside is that you cannot control what happens during the drag: if you need to constrain your window to some area or snap it to the screen edges, the async attribute won't let you do that.

On 7C107 at least in my app the resize still happens in "real time" with both flags on...

I think you are right Dario, AsyncDrag should only affect drag events. I think my confusion was coming from the fact that you also get bounds changing events during drag - with async drag you will get fewer of these kinds of bounds changing (or at least are supposed to from what I understand).
