You can make the GOP area dragable using dynamic patching (see attachment). I'm using iemguts and cyclone here, although you can find pure Vanilla alternatives if you need them.

I take it that nobody knows a way of sensing the GOP resizing, as I had originally asked? I suspect it might be impossible (although I've achieved lots of "impossible" things on PD in the past).

oh huh, wild.. so you still can't use the mouse to change the bounds of a GOP in the GOP patch itself but if you create an object for that GOP you can resize that then go in and save and get the resized GOP area.. would still really love to have mouse draggable bounds inside the GOP abstraction.

Vanilla now has the nice feature that lets you resize objects with the mouse. Is there any way of detecting this from inside the patch? It doesn't turn up in iemguts/receivecanvas, but if I could somehow receive the new coordinates, then I could program the patch to adapt to the new size.

Alternatively, is there some way to query the GOP area from within the patch, a bit like [get_pos( to a canvas?

I know this is optimistic, but I thought I'd ask.

PS. I know all about [donecanvasdialog(. In this situation, I don't think it will help.
