To make windows within windows resizeable (the buff section of the pet window is treadted as its own window by the code apparently) Sony uses margin offsets to ensure that the window will adjust itself in size as the primary window itself is resized.

So to correctly resize and place the buff window you have to highlight it in sidlwidl and look at the anchor offsets, then set them all to 0. Then resize the window as necessary and place it where you want.

As for the errors .. i found i got constant errors from sidlwidl when ever i did this but it seemed to continue to work anyway. Sometimes you have to save then reload the image for the changes to be visible.

Hope that helps some
