How do I resize a button or a frame?
Buttons and frames can only be resized if they do not have any bitmaps. If a button has one or more bitmaps, the
width of the button is fixed to the smallest width of all its bitmaps and the height of the button is fixed to the
smallest height of all its bitmaps. The same is true for frames except that a frame can have at most one bitmap.

If a button or frame has no bitmaps, you can resize it as follows:
1. Select the button or frame you want to resize by clicking on it. A red frame
will appear around the selected button or frame.
2. Release the left mouse button and move over the edge of the button or
frame until the cursor changes into a resize cursor with the desired
orientation.
orientation.
3. Hold down the left mouse button and move the cursor to drag the edge
underneath it and resize the button or frame. The status bar shows the
current size of the selected button or frame.
current size of the selected button or frame.
Alternatively you can use the cursor keys to resize the button or frame.
Hold down a SHIFT key to move the top or left edge, and hold down a
CTRL key to move the bottom or right edge. To move an edge faster with
the cursor keys, hold the SPACE bar at the same time.

You can only resize a button or frame if it has no bitmaps.
How do I use my own bitmaps?
Every button or frame can have its own unique bitmaps. A buttons can have up to four bitmaps, one for each of
its states. A frame can have only one bitmap.
its states. A frame can have only one bitmap.
Bitmaps take up memory and having many different bitmaps means there is
less room for other data, like IR codes. You can help minimize the memory bitmaps
require by reusing bitmaps, where possible, on your buttons and frames. ChadEdit
checks for equal bitmaps when saving a configuration by looking at the actual
bitmap contents, and only saves unique bitmaps
