Resize window mid sketch?

I have looked around but I havent found anything that works.

For example I made Pong (the game), and at the menu screen they can choose single player or multiplayer and they both have different sketch sizes.

frame.setsize(200,200) - makes the window glitch between sizes.

resize(200,200) - makes the smaller window inside the original.

Works fine for me (Windows, Processing 2.0.1).

Code Example

boolean sizeToggle = true;
void setup() {
size(500, 500);
//frame.setResizable(true);
}
void draw() {
background(frameCount%255);
}
void mousePressed() {
if (sizeToggle) {
sizeToggle = false;
frame.setSize(200,200);
} else {
sizeToggle = true;
frame.setSize(500,500);
}
}

A more compact version and it also works in P1.5.1:

boolean toggle;

void setup() {
  size(500, 500);
}

void draw() {
  background(frameCount % 0400);
}

void mousePressed() {
  if (toggle = !toggle)  frame.setSize(200, 200);
  else                   frame.setSize(500, 500);
}

I tested with Processing 2.0.1 on OS X 10.8.4...

As you mentioned, resize() doesn't work. However, frame.setSize() seems to work ok. It does glitch a little, but it doesn't seem too bad.
