Is there a way to have a docked window work with a popup window? I’m playing with the dock index but it’s not doing what I want. My situation is that I have a graph popup with a ton of configuration options, but the options take up a lot of screen real estate. I’d like the user to be able to hide them and have the graph take up the full window. Additionally I would like the user to be able to move and resize the popup, and I don’t want to go through the trouble of scripting all of the graph resizing manually. ---

I would put a container on the window that holds all of the configuration, then just show/hide it based on a button. ---

I tried that, but the easy chart doesn’t resize when the container is hidden. Is there a way to resize the easy chart component dynamically? The user can resize the window so the size of the easy chart wouldn’t be static. ---

Don’t put the chart in the container and make it full screen. Put the configuration options in the container, then show/hide it above the chart. Make sure the container is all the way to the front layer wise. ---

Well that just covers up part of the graph with the config options, it didn’t resize it. I thought I saw that component resizing somewhere before. ---

Set the chart to anchored layout, locked to all four sides. With the rest of @MMaynard’s suggestions. ---

Is the chart in a container? If so, you need it to be anchored on all four sides, too. ---
