I am not sure I understand. You have Window1, for example, whose size is larger
than the Form window. So part of that window is under the Form scrollbars. Ok so
far?

If you mean you can not access that area (under Form's scrollbars) without
undocking Form or undocking 1 or more of the other windows, why not simply move
the Form scrollbars to their maximum limits which effectively moves Window1 to
its limits? If you need to access the left side of Window1 under the scrollbar
then scroll the horizontal scrollbar to its min size.

If you mean you want to resize Window1 to a size that happens to be under Form's
scrollbars then I would recommend using Properties 'width' and 'height' to adjust
Window1 until I have fixed the problem.

Let me know which of these is the problem. And of course, if I have completely
misunderstood the situation, let me know that as well
