Doing this > with one click would be easier and more convenient for the user. I knew this would come up :) Fixed, for moving. [which matches the cursor shape btw]. Not done for resizing. The current code requires the resize handles to be present and to be dragged.... Since the initial click isn't on a resize handle this is hard to emulate. Anyway it might not be a good idea to do this, since the handles are not visible at the time of the click. > - it should be possible to lock frame mode - moving frame not only by > it's borders will be helpful when doing DTP. Is this really necessary ? The mouse is already on a border.... When selecting multiple frames I implemented some sort of locking (once a frame is selected, Ctrl or Shift + click selects other frames without exiting the mode). I guess you mean changing the way the menu items work, so that they actually lock the mode when being manually activated....
