How to get the "resize" triangle without scrollbars

[ceties]

Hey, What I am trying to accomplish is to give the user comfortable opportunity to resize the panel but in the same time I don't want to use scrollbars which as a sidefect provide the small tringle in the bottom corner that allows to resize. I know that if I hide the scrollbars the user can resize the panel anyway but that small triangle disappears. So my question is how to preserve that small triangle? Thanks

The triangle is actually part of the scrollbar.  You could copy (snip-it or screenshot the corner and paste it on your vi) as a free picture but this is cosmetic only and could be confusing.

This triangle has really nothing to do with the ability to resize.

Simply hide the scroll bars and allow the user to resize the panel.

I have to opose. If the "rectangle" is visible it's easier to begin resizing. I mean if it isn't visible you have to grab the panel in the very corner and resize it. If it is visible you can start the resize from a larger area - you can start anywhere within the rectangle. I think I could program it but I was wondering if there isn't some trick.
