You overuse the "M" specifier, such functions are not reusable and this
is usually not what you want.
I would say any complex function should normally have only one "M",
like in this sample:
DestroyFunc MyResizeDispatcher
AddToFunc MyResizeDispatcher
+ C MyResize0
+ M MyResize
+ H MyResize
+ D MyResize2
The rest of the configuration is your whole example above with all 8 "M"
replaced with "I". Then it works. Just don't forget "p" here:
WarpToWindow $[POINTERX]p $[POINTERY]p
