Please help with this question:

GUIs are easy to build but difficult to build correctly. In my case, I am lost about resizing, and I am inclined to set the resizable property to false. Please share your thoughts on this bold move

Okay.
You will lose marks, quite a few, as a guess, max 28/40 ?

Hi Anton,

If at all possible, I would recommend you take the time to learn how to do GUI resizing. Once you get used to it, you will find it very easy, and it is one of those things that customers do complain about loudly.

Regards, Andrew

Thanks, Andrew. I managed to concoct a resizable gui. I once worked for a company whose system was not resizable - part-time when going to college. It was a very confounding system. I noticed people have posted on occasion the visuals on their GUIs, and I'd like to do the same.
