Consider one object with this code in its create event in a room called room0:

room_set_width(room0,100);
room_set_height(room0,100);
show_message(string(room_width)+"#"+string(room_height));

The message box then returns:

640
480

This proves that no changes to the room's width and height have been made. Why so? Can't one change the properties of an active room?

you can't change the room size of the current room or a persistent room that has been visited. Call the functions from a menu room and it should work.

Some people have said that it can be done from the current room if it is then restarted, but icuurd12b42's suggestion is the documented and correct way to handle it.
