[mcclim-devel] Non shrinking panes

[Nikolaus Demmel]

False alarm.

(clear-output-record (stream-output-history pane))

does work. But the pane is still refusing to shrink in size, even if  
i manually call

(resize-sheet pane a b)

the pane is still back to its maximum ever size on next redisplay.  
What causes the pane to keep its size?

Regards,
Niko Demmel
