Try the BorderWidget example in the vtkwikiexamples. You can download
that directly from the wiki

http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx/Qt/BorderWidget

or get it from the git server

http://gitorious.org/vtkwikiexamples

It looks to me the drag and resize are implemented. You just need the
ability to have the user set the initial size. In the case of the
example the Widget is already some default size on the screen and not
added by a user action.
