Want to Resize "Image Manager" Container (make larger)

I have OpenCart 1.4.7 installed...

How do I make the "Image Manager" container window larger?

It appears to me that the "Image Manager" (FileManager) displays in a separate container (maybe an iFrame, not sure) that prevents me from making the container window any larger. How do I make the parent iFrame Container larger, ex. making the iFrame container twice the size that it is by default. Not sure if I understand how to resize the main container parent window. I think that I understand that I can resize the left column and the right column within the window, but is it possible to make the main container window larger?

I have tried to change the admin\view\template\common\filemanager.tpl file by increasing the container height and giving the container a width, with no success.

Ex increased container height from 340px to 500px and tried to give the container a width of 600px

admin\view\template\common\filemanager.tpl

Code: Select all

#container {
	padding: 0px 10px 7px 10px;
	height: 500px;
	width: 600px;
}
Not sure what else to do... Any suggestions?

\admin\view\template\catalog\product_form.tpl
in function image_upload change width and height to whatever you want.
Then change container, column_left and column_right sizes in the filemanager.tpl

hello. after i have sean the solution here i decided to give it a try in opencart 1.9.5 since i needed this verry bad and in 1.5 is not fixed as well
here it is what i did
go to /admin/view/template/catalog/product_form.tpl
replace the lines from 825 to 829 with

Code: Select all

      bgiframe: false,
		width: 1300,
		height: 600,
		resizable: true,
		modal: false
save, than go to admin/view/template/common/filemanager.tpl
replace lines 27 to 51 with

Code: Select all

#container {
	padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
	height: 530px;
}
#menu {
	clear: both;
	height: 29px;
	margin-bottom: 3px;
}
#column_left {
	background: #FFF;
	border: 1px solid #CCC;
	float: left;
	width: 30%;
	height: 520px;
	overflow: auto;
}
#column_right {
	background: #FFF;
	border: 1px solid #CCC;
	float: right;
	width: 68%;
	height: 520px;
	overflow: auto;
	text-align: center;
you can use what values you may require depending on your screen resolution -mine is 720p lcd, that's why i used 1300
olso, setting in first file resizable: true, makes it resizable in the windows.
all the credit goes to DEHiCKA for this (THANKS)
