[DUG] Window resizing

[John Bird]

So far I have written a few simple apps with fixed form size - I set them to
fit 800x600 pixels desktop as that is a safe enough bet for most users.  The
windows have a few Delphi standard controls.

For users with 1000x800 or larger screens it would be nice for the app to
resize the form bigger, but I haven't done this yet.  What are the basic
issues?

- I imagine detecting the system desktop size, setting form size
accordingly, and setting appropriate properties on
Controls (mainly stringgrids etc) so they resize and align OK if the form
changes size...

- Anything else to consider?

- How much of a pain is it? - ie if it's a lot I might not bother till the
next version
