How to Set the "Bottom" property of a dialog box

I have homegrown desktop application, which has a dialog box with no maximize feature. I am adding widgets to this dialog box to the point where they become out of bounds. I need to set the "bottom" properties of this dialog window so that all the button widgets will fit properly. 

 

Recording uses the drag property specifying X and Y coordinates which will fail to run depending on the configuration of the display. Please help!

    Hi,

     

    In common of terms, Bottom is ready-only property of an Object.

    We can in change the value in Namemapping but it will not change the dialog size or anything.

     

    We can use this property to identify the object not for modifying object.

      Thank you for clarifying that Shankar..

       

      What would you recommend as a solution to this issue? In other words, how do I enlarge a dialog window object which has no maximize method?

        Hi,

         

        Can you try like this yourObject.Drag(2,2,100,10) and see what happens?
