Hmm, while my group window can become rather large, the raid window isn't resizable at all.

One of the major problems with making a window like Grid(I assume since I've never played WoW) is that we can make buttons that do things when clicked... but we can't detect right-clicks, middle-clicks, shift-clicks, etc. So if we wanted to do more than one thing per square, it would have to be in the form of tinier buttons. Which sounds like it defeats the purpose. I had some ideas to go around that, but I can't find the thread and it wasn't a great solution anyways.

The thing about making only the raid window visible is that the game simply doesn't populate it when you're not in a raid. Though I suppose I could do a trick where the group window exists always but moves itself when you get into a raid, thus covering the normal raid group. I already sort of do that trick with the player window looking like a part of the group window.

The problem with making the raid window resizable is that the resizing is already used for the 1x4/2x2/4x1 group arrangements. It's merely an issue, not a block, however.
