Resizing Windows
My webMethods provides many functions to allow you to resize windows within a workspace. You can:
Minimize a window so that
My webMethods displays only the window’s title bar. Use this function when you do not need to see the content of the window.
Maximize a window so that it uses the full size of the content area. Use this function when you need more space for a window.
Restore a window to its previous size. Use this function if you previously minimized it and now want to view its content again, or if you previously maximized the window and no longer require the window to use the full content area.
Best fit the size of a window so that
My webMethods determines the best size to use for a window.

If you are using a free form layout for the workspace, the window is resized to fit its contents.

If you are using a column layout (for example,
Two Columns), the window resizes vertically to fit the window contents and horizontally to fit the column width.
Customize the size of a window by dragging the edge of the window to make it any size you want.
Note: | To resize windows in a workspace you must either be the owner of the workspace, or if you are using a workspace that another user has shared with you, you must have “View and Modify” or “Full Control” permissions for the workspace. If you have “View Only” permission to a workspace, you can resize windows; however, you cannot save the changes. As a result, when you leave the workspace the windows will revert to their previous state. For more information about sharing workspaces, see Sharing Workspaces. |
