Re-Sizing an AU window from within the AU view.

Hi All,

I know this has been discussed before but I just wondered what the general opinion was
on AU's that have a facility to resize their window, therefore changing the view?

I'm about to start work on a plug-in where the client wants to have a view that includes a piano keyboard which
can be removed using a button leaving the remaining controls displayed in a 'rack'. Due cross-platform development,
I'm not using standard AU View controls - I'm drawing into a carbon window using a cross-platform GUI library.

So, a couple of questions regarding re-sizing :

1) Is this a good thing to be doing in AU i.e. is it in keeping with the general AU philosophy?

2) Are there any built-in facilities for this that I've missed?

3) Are the any other AU's that do this and therefore a known method to solve this problem?

Personally, I'm not keen on the show/hide a keyboard approach by window re-sizing..just wanted
to check with the rest of the group..

Many thanks.
Ben.

P.S. The AU I have been working on hit the streets last weekend :-) (Novation V-Station). Many thanks to all of
you that helped me along the way.

BTW, I've just moved away from using PNG's for AU graphic objects and now use WIN BMP's with pre-calculated alpha (again
cross-platform reasons).
The difference in re-draw speed is amazing (thanks to the pre-calculation). If anyone needs any hints on this then I'd be glad to help -
definitely worth the extra effort. _______________________________________________
