currently, when separators and window edge are dragged, the window changes its size during the drag. I suggest that the window will update its size only after the mouse button is released. some other feedback for the user can be used (usually a thin frame of the window). I think that this feature is supported with JInternalFrame.
I see now that this is implemented with "detached" windows. this enhancement request is relevant only for the "attached" windows.
Target milestone -> 3.3.1.
Target milestone -> 3.4
Reassigning to Marek. Marek, please evaluate these enhancements, thanks.
Window system has its own implementation of DesktopPane. We must set component sizes after user interaction ends (mouse button is released). I saw this enhancement already somewhere.
Target milestone was changed from '3.4' to TBD.
DesktopPane is to be reimplemented. It should be solved together.

any chance you can fix this for 3.5 ?
I've seen that this RFE is implemented into 3.5 beta. It works wonderfully. There is only one place where the window contents are still displayed while dragging the separator: it's in the form editor. Open a form and look at the right part of the window, the one containing a treeview and properties. The horizontal separator still needs to be fixed. Thanks.
That split is part of the TopComponent (Component Inspector), not window system. Passing it to owner.
The Component Inspector is no more divided - it has not its dedicated property sheet anymore.
