Resize a control. The control_name is the name of the control or a variable. Setting dw and or dh will resize the control by the specified delta from its current size. The dw and dh values can be 0 to set an absolute position using the w and h values only.

Optional anchors can allow for automatic adjustment of the control's x and y positions to keep the control anchored in the desired position as the control's size change:

Horizontal:

gre.LEFT anchor will not adjust the control's x position. This is the default behavior.
gre.CENTER anchor will adjust the control's x position by half the difference in control width.
gre.RIGHT anchor will adjust the control's x position by the difference in control width.

Vertical:

gre.TOP anchor will not adjust the control's y position. This is the default behavior.
gre.CENTER anchor will adjust the control's y position by half the difference in control height.
gre.BOTTOM anchor will adjust the control's y position the difference in control height.
