perhaps the custom view he has in it is a requirement for working whatever is in the content of the window.. small doesn't necessarily work well for that.. nor does text necessarily (although you could bring up a panel)

If the smaller display doesn't provide all the needed functionality, make it show a sheet or a panel when clicked. That's what the "Search" field in Finder does, when you make it too small or it doesn't fit the toolbar anymore and ends up in the menu.

Right... but, if the widget in question is an absolute necessity to the operation of the application,
and it isn't appropriate to the operation of the app to stick it into a panel (maybe it's an interactive rotation doohicky or something... I don't know)


or maybe it's a preferences situation.

I don't quite get what you mean; Could you clarify?

Nope.. I've already put my foot in my mouth on that one. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on you. :-)


His words were effectively "I want to get rid of the toolbar button or better yet, stop it from changing the size and just do hide/show". I can understand that people wouldn't want a toolbar as important as that in "System Preferences" to be hidden, but the other way round, allowing it to hide but not resize?


I was concentrating on answering the first part, and telling "the llama" how to do the second. I'm not making a value judgment as to why he wants to.
