 Use the <liveResizing> property to create a smooth visual appearance while resizing.

 If the <liveResizing> is true, <resizeStack> <message|messages> are sent continually while the window is being resized, allowing your stack to update its appearance during resizing. (If the user pauses during resizing, with the mouse down in the resize box but the pointer not moving, no <resizeStack> <message> is sent until the mouse moves again.)
