And this is how I usually do it. You can do it other ways (e.g.
subclassing your widget and overriding its resize() method to detect the
resize...), but checking in the draw method is pretty robust, and can be
"timely" in the sense that you only respond to the resize when there's
something to redaw...
You do have to watch out though - depending on how the window manager
handles resizing (e.g. if it shows the content changing while resizing)
you might do an awful lot of work scaling the images during the drag -
sometimes it is betetr to wait until the drag has stopped and just do
all the rescaling once at the final size...
