Shrink GUI from top down not bottom up

[KF5WGB]

Hi,

When resizing/shrinking an existing GUI, WinMove does it from the bottom up, loosing whats on top. How do I reverse that. In other words, I want the top part of the GUI stay as it is and the bottom part "shrunk".
Run my little script and hit F5 (Hide/Show SolarData) and you see what I mean. The bottom with the picture now overlays the top (shrunk up). If you run the script without Internet connection you do not see the pic and you can not resize the GUI. That is what I want it to show when F5 is pressed AND internet connection is available.

Is it possible to keep the GUI or do I have to create a new one every time I hit the F5 Key?

Thanks for any help

The issue seems to be the default resizing behavior of the Obj control.  I added a couple of GUICtrlSetState commands in the _HideSolarData function to hide and show the $hIE Obj Control and noticed your other controls also shrink in size which I doubt you want.  An easy work-around would be to set the default control resizing option to the top of the script.

Beneath your Opt("TrayIconHide, 1) declaration, try adding this option.

Opt("GUIResizemode", $GUI_DOCKALL)

That worked. I have to remember that one. Maybe it is time to write an UDF (winresize($handle, Vpos, Hpos, @shrinkmode) ) or something like that.

 Thanks for your input
