In EDIT TAB.

When cursor hovers over TIMELINE -> it changes into an ICON allowing you to adjust the split (ie size) of the main Viewer vs the Timeline.

+) This BUG prevents any resizing from taking place.
+) It happened when Resolve was taking the full size of the screen (but not 'FULL SCREEN' mode).

Workaround (to UNSTICK it) : TOP LEFT of Resolve => Reduce the size of the Window to be less than 100% of the available area -> and Bingo .. you can resize the TIMELINE vs VIEWER size.

Hmm, works perfectly fine for me under High Sierra on my iMac 2017 with Radeon Pro 580.

Thanks for trying to reproduce this.

I have only had this happen a handful of times in the past 3 days.

I'll start trying to note the actions that I remember doing prior to the RESIZING FREEZE to see if I can find a pattern.

This is a fairly old post but I have the exact same issue since a few hours with Resolve 15.2.2.007 and I can't solve it. The timeline on my 4K monitor is so small that you can hardly work with it. When switching it to my FullHD monitor then working is simply impossible. The last weeks it was no problem with this version. Suddenly it wasn't possible anymore.

I thought I accidentally had set a function like "Deactivate panel resizing" or something like this by hitting a keyboard shortcut but I can't find such an option. Now the viewer has the same fixed size in every project. Because the Resolve application window can't be resized, the workaround from Antony doesn't work anymore.

Has anybody experienced the same issue or even has a solution? Maybe it was even a Windows Update (KB4480966) that was automatically installed today during working with Resolve. I can't exclude that.

Have you tried Workspace>Reset UI Layout ?

Brilliant! Thank you!

STill seems to be a bug but " Workspace>Reset UI Layout" worked for me too. Many thanks.

I also had to use this from time to time, but since I did not forgot the trick, it worked for me every time.
