What Wesley is saying seems like a good starting point. I haven't heard of this type of behavior before. But a uniform scaling of all components and all of their text at the same time will be a challenge... sidenote: I'm on a mac, so if I can't read something, I just use the Command+Option+8 shor

After thinking about it for a minute... now I'm understanding what you're saying. You want to actually ZOOM in, make them larger. Have you tried taking the easy way out and telling the people to change their monitor resolution? :D On Mon, Jan 12, 2009 at 1:47 PM, Nate Beck wrote: > ... If you're

... If you're using constraint based layout... how is there a problem? A component taking 100% of the width of it's container will always scale to fit that container. On Mon, Jan 12, 2009 at 1:27 PM, aceoohay wrote: > While that example does allow you to maximize a panel, it does not > expand

Doing a quick google search for, "flex maximize, minimize panel" Returns loads of examples of what you're trying to do I think... http://www.comtaste.com/DashboardExample/DashboardExample.html and http://blog.comtaste.com/2008/12/how_to_use_the_flex_dashboard_1.html Right? On Mon, Jan 12, 2009
