+
+Looking into drag-to-resize for the console and the menu. All sorted.
+
+Settings and console can be resized but not beyond a minimum value, and the
+grid node grows to fill the void.
+
+
+26/3
+
+Sorted out the console, resizing is mint, settings are nearing completion and the node grid has been refactored multiple times.
