Resizing a Canvas App

Canvas provides methods for resizing a canvas app. Full reference documentation for these methods can be found in the SDK and here.

• autogrow—Starts or stops a timer that checks the content size of the canvas iFrame and adjusts the frame. See Automatically Resizing a Canvas App.
• resize—Informs the parent window to resize the canvas iFrame. See Explicitly Resizing a Canvas App.
• size—Returns the current size of the canvas iFrame. See Getting the Size of a Canvas App.
• subscribe—Subscribes to parent events. Currently, canvas.scroll (of the parent) is the only supported parent event in the canvas namespace. See Subscribing to Parent Events.

note: For resize functions to work with your canvas app, you must declare a DOCTYPE at the top of any HTML pages that are associated with the app. For example: <!DOCTYPE html>.
