This is an APE that allows you to resize your AVS Editor Window.
You don't need to add it to a preset to make it work. just copy the .ape to your avs directory and run Winamp/AVS. It currently resizes the following dialogs:
Misc / Comment
Trans / Movement
Trans / Dynamic Movement
Trans / Color Modifier
Render / SuperScope
Render / Texer II
Effect list
If you have written your own APE and want its dialog to resize correctly, catch the WM_SIZE messages that are passed to your g_DlgProc and resize the elements of your interface accordingly.

The APE now automatically selects the first component of the preset if no component is selected. This might be useful for viewing packs with comments
Just press U/Y to browse through them and the APE automatically selects the first component for you, which will probably be a comment

Small bugfix. if you dont have problems, dont get it, but if your mouse moves to the center of the editor window when you try to resize it, download the new version.

Long time since the last update
I finally managed to make the "first component selection" work on most (all?) platforms.
Also, i added a menu entry for APEresize under "Settings". Later versions will offer more options there.
[/edit]
The Ape seems to be resizing the wrong part of the window, the effects tree part gets bigger and smaller instead of the settings panel, also the panel is fixed at a width that is smaller than it is ment to be...
I run winamp on linux under wine now, and I really like this feature addition that you made, only thing is it's a little oddly behaved under wine.
If I re-size the window my mouse jumps off the screen and the AVS edit window is almost as big as my screen resolution.
I'm not gonna bug you about this, to be honest if you actually are willing to fix this I'll be happy, but a bit surprised, as I have no idea if this is a wine bug or a result of you having to do nasty things with window handles and whatnot and behavoiur that is undefined and wine responding differntly than the real windows...
any hoo thought I'd ask if you'd fix it, I'll understand if you don't want to.
i'm afraid it's a wine thing
if you dont need to resize your editor window frequently, you could add the component Misc/Enable Resize and set the size (in pixels) there
'nother thing I noticed is that the context menu for selecting a preset doesn't scroll under wine... Does winamp handle making that scrollable, or is that something that wine should be doing and nobody's implemented it yet?
Thanks!

I wonder what weirdness is going on here...

Do not worry. I do not mind. Be kind to yourself.
