## Resizable Widget version added: 1.0

Description: Change the size of an element using the mouse.

## Options

### alsoResizeType: Selector or jQuery or Element

Default: `false`
One or more elements to resize synchronously with the resizable element.

### animateType: Boolean

Default: `false`
Animates to the final size after resizing.

### animateDurationType: Number or String

Default: `"slow"`
How long to animate when using the `animate` option.
Multiple types supported:

- Number: Duration in milliseconds.
- String: A named duration, such as `"slow"` or `"fast"`.

### animateEasingType: String

Default: `"swing"`
Which easing to apply when using the `animate` option.

### aspectRatioType: Boolean or Number

Default: `false`
Whether the element should be constrained to a specific aspect ratio.
Multiple types supported:

- Boolean: When set to `true`, the element will maintain its original aspect ratio.
- Number: Force the element to maintain a specific aspect ratio during resizing.

### autoHideType: Boolean

Default: `false`
Whether the handles should hide when the user is not hovering over the element.

### cancelType: Selector

Default: `"input,textarea,button,select,option"`
Prevents resizing from starting on specified elements.

### containmentType: Selector or Element or String

Default: `false`
Constrains resizing to within the bounds of the specified element or region.
Multiple types supported:

- Selector: The resizable element will be contained to the bounding box of the first element found by the selector. If no element is found, no containment will be set.
- Element: The resizable element will be contained to the bounding box of this element.
- String: Possible values: `"parent"` and `"document"`.

### delayType: Number

Default: `0`
Tolerance, in milliseconds, for when resizing should start. If specified, resizing will not start until after mouse is moved beyond duration. This can help prevent unintended resizing when clicking on an element.

### disabledType: Boolean

Default: `false`
Disables the resizable if set to `true`.
Code examples:

Initialize the resizable with the disabled option specified:

`$(` `".selector"` `).resizable({ disabled:` `true` `});`

Get or set the disabled option, after initialization:

`// getter` `var` `disabled = $(` `".selector"` `).resizable(` `"option"``,` `"disabled"` `);` `// setter` `$(` `".selector"` `).resizable(` `"option"``,` `"disabled"``,` `true` `);`

### distanceType: Number

Default: `1`
Tolerance, in pixels, for when resizing should start. If specified, resizing will not start until after mouse is moved beyond distance. This can help prevent unintended resizing when clicking on an element.

### ghostType: Boolean

Default: `false`
If set to `true`, a semi-transparent helper element is shown for resizing.

### gridType: Array

Default: `false`
Snaps the resizing element to a grid, every x and y pixels. Array values: `[ x, y ]`.

### handlesType: String or Object

Default: `"e, s, se"`
Which handles can be used for resizing.
Multiple types supported:

- String: A comma delimited list of any of the following: n, e, s, w, ne, se, sw, nw, all. The necessary handles will be auto-generated by the plugin.
- Object: The following keys are supported: { n, e, s, w, ne, se, sw, nw }. The value of any specified should be a jQuery selector matching the child element of the resizable to use as that handle. If the handle is not a child of the resizable, you can pass in the DOMElement or a valid jQuery object directly.

### helperType: String

Default: `false`
A class name that will be added to a proxy element to outline the resize during the drag of the resize handle. Once the resize is complete, the original element is sized.

### maxHeightType: Number

Default: `null`
The maximum height the resizable should be allowed to resize to.

### maxWidthType: Number

Default: `null`
The maximum width the resizable should be allowed to resize to.

### minHeightType: Number

Default: `10`
The minimum height the resizable should be allowed to resize to.

### minWidthType: Number

Default: `10`
The minimum width the resizable should be allowed to resize to.

### Additional Notes:

- This widget requires some functional CSS, otherwise it won't work. If you build a custom theme, use the widget's specific CSS file as a starting point.
