Um, wait. is the size being changed a bug in CMake-Gui, Qt or  
WindowBlinds? I am going to guess that Microsoft doesn't officially  
support "skinning" and so you want the CMake team to support a non- 
supported feature of Windows on a shipping product? Doesn't really  
seem like a good idea to me. Just my Opinion.

Also, could you post some screen shots of what exactly the problem is?
