I am working with wirecloud platform and I would like to know the following:
1.- Is is possible to resize the widget's width and height dinamically?
2.- Is it possible to fill a dashboard with widgets and ops dinamically?
Both questions aims to have a menu(widget) where users can click and change between different tabs.
Any help or idea would be highly appreciated.

I am able to answer the second question: NO. As I can see in this request, the ability to add/remove widgets dinamically is not available, although is thought to be in future releases of the platform. Next question: when is it going to be available?

I expected using:
MashupPlatform.widget.drawAttention();
could trigger a tab change, but no luck.

Finally, we found a workaround. We take advantage of the iFrame property by which you can access to parent's document. From there, we are able to read the elements representing the tabs and generate their clicks at will.
Support for adding widgets and operators dynamically will be added on version 0.8.0, you can experiment with this feature if you install WireCloud from the develop branch on github. We are working on improving the documentation and polishing it for a new release at the end of September.
Although is great you find a work around using the iframe property for moving between tabs :), I recommend you to request the addition of such a feature using the WireCloud's issue tracker ;-).
P.D. MashupPlatform.widget.drawAttention(); need some fixes, but the idea is to provide some visual highlighting of widgets so user know there are updates in the widget. Something similar to the way google hangouts uses a green color for indicating the chat has new messages.
