Bug Description

An option to resize the sheet from the top could be useful. Otherwise you need to move all the pinsheet down to make space for the new ones.

I hope there's still use/need for this feature after ~8yrs. I've took the opportunity to delve into this issue and create a patch for it.

Doing so I now think:
- Having corner and mid point handles to manipulate when the sheet is selected would maybe be more intuitive for user

Anyways, if one could have a look at the patch, I'm open for feedback and doing my homework.
