I think you should clarify whether you want 1. windows, or 2. stuff
within windows, or 3. both.
One way to do nr. 2 across two windows is by looking at rev's tools
palette. they make a fake picture, set a window to be the correct
size, and make it follow the mouse, until it is released, cumbersome
but they got it working.
As for groups not resizing, that can be a problem, so don't rely on
automatic resizing. Set the lockloc of your group to true, and set
it's rectangle yourself.
maybe you can clarify just one case of what you'd like to do, i'm sure
it'll get you more precise hints about ways to achieve it.

Hello fellow coders,
I am trying to decide on the best way to approach a particular
concept in Revolution. The part that I am concerned with is similar
to iGoogle and the way you can select a web app by its title bar and
drag it to another column where a dotted line shows where it will be
dropped. This is not a web app on the internet but rather a
prototype in Revolution showing how a system to like this would work
in Revolution.
Things I am considering are:
The resizing of the window to fit the space moved to.
The dotted line.
The moving of any window existing in the same spot downward.
The keeping track of each window in which column.
Questions:
Do you guys think these "mini" apps in RR should be groups?
Should the decorations be in the group?
I have had difficulties with group sizes clipping contents etc. in
previous projects. Is there a better way to have all of the
components be related to a window on the card with title bar,
decorations, window frame etc.????
