Sliding Divider-Resizer Object

[DunbarX at aol.com]

At first blush I would have made two fields kind of locked together, that is, 
the bot of the top field tracks the top of the bottom field. You don't need a 
button. And isn't this the way you really want it, that the total height of 
both fields is fixed? That the text of the top field is completely independent 
of the text in the bottom? Both fields can scroll, for example, if authored 
this way.

To resize, in each field script, you simply check to see if you are within a 
few pixels of the common border, and if so, change the cursor (or something) 
and enter a repeat loop if the mouse is down. Set the tops and bots, and exit 
the loop when the mouse is up.

You can always add a visual gadget of some kind that also tracks the common 
border. In HC I might use a thin button, in Rev I bet there are much more 
colorful choices.
