IOleInPlaceActiveObject::ResizeBorder method (oleidl.h)
Alerts the object that it needs to resize its border space.
Syntax
HRESULT ResizeBorder(
[in] LPCRECT prcBorder,
[in] IOleInPlaceUIWindow *pUIWindow,
[in] BOOL fFrameWindow
);
Parameters
[in] prcBorder
A pointer to a RECT structure containing the new outer rectangle within which the object can request border space for its tools.
[in] pUIWindow
A pointer to an IOleInPlaceUIWindow interface pointer for the frame or document window object whose border has changed.
[in] fFrameWindow
This parameter is TRUE if the frame window object is calling IOleInPlaceActiveObject::ResizeBorder; otherwise, it is FALSE.
Return value
This method returns S_OK on success. Other possible return values include the following.

Remarks
Notes to Callers
IOleInPlaceActiveObject::ResizeBorder is called by the top-level container's document or frame window object when the border space allocated to the object should change. Because the active in-place object is not informed about which window has changed (the frame- or document-level window), IOleInPlaceActiveObject::ResizeBorder must be passed the pointer to the window's IOleInPlaceUIWindow interface.Notes to Implementers
In most cases, resizing only requires that you grow, shrink, or scale your object's frame adornments. However, for more complicated adornments, you may be required to renegotiate for border space with calls to IOleInPlaceUIWindow::SetBorderSpace and IOleInPlaceUIWindow::SetBorderSpace.Note While executing IOleInPlaceActiveObject::ResizeBorder, do not make calls to the PeekMessage or GetMessage functions, or a dialog box. Doing so may cause the system to deadlock. There are further restrictions on which OLE interface methods and functions can be called from within IOleInPlaceActiveObject::ResizeBorder.
