Subject: Re: OT: Future Releases

Tyrone,

    I would suspect that that feature would be very difficult to implement.
A label in English might be 5 characters long. However in the next local it
could be 10 characters long. (Spacing between fields likely needs to be
managed manually at this point.) Likewise some labels might even be in
different fonts(bold/normal/italics) between views and also effect how
layout should be dealt with too.

   However, if BMC moves to a more advanced layout manager (like Java Swing
uses) then I can see more of this becoming "automatically"
possible. However, it would likely mean a steeper learning curve for ARS
developers, and more headaches(and features) for some users too.

Besides what is that old saying....

    Pain is beauty.

To keep your UI "looking good" it takes work. (and change to keep up with
the latest trends in UI. :)
