@meandavejustice moving this out of launch

If you're on Linux, this is already possible, but hidden. Most desktop envs have a shortcut for resize, on MATE it is Alt + Right click + drag. Try it out :smile:

Is there any progress on this issue? I'm not able to resize the player in my current setup (firefox and win10) and the video is really small for me now.-

I find that this is my main issue with using Min Vid currently. I was looking for a "drag to resize" option. In the about:addons page .. you can only make it smaller (Windows 10, Firefox 54.0.1 (64-bit)). I want the size to be bigger. Say 640 x 480. Or like 1/5 of my screen. Instead of 1/8.

Pretty boring but on linux I can do it manually in the meantime

What was wrong with https://github.com/6a68/min-vid/commit/c5e4e9a2?

[Mte90]

I guess that is the only thing that enable to resize it on linux (also is not possible to drag it). With the alt and different hotkeys with the mouse is possible to resize and drag it.

@Jarvvski That code won't work for the current implementation, it would only work for the ui inside the window. It was also really laggy. Min Vid is about to go through a shield study and if feedback is good we'll be able to have more resources to add these type of features.
