Just like in Delphi, resizing forms using the touchpad on my Win 7 64bit laptop is easy. But unlike in Delphi, resizing components (like DBGrid)is impossible with the touchpad, the double-headed arrow won't stay put - I have to manually enter the size into the Object Inspector.

Why can't the same method be used to resize components as for forms?

I have no tried Windows 7 with touchpad, but
on Linux and OS X touchpads are translates to normal mouse events by the OS and that works.

How do you drag and drop on your touchpad?
