What you've done is to make your functions anonymous. You don't need to do
that to make them object methods. All you need to do is make them
properties of an object. Instead of
> Replace function adjustMainLayout() { .... blah blah blah...
> with layout.adjust = function() { blah blah blah...
do this:
function adjustMainLayout() { .... blah blah blah..
layout.adjust = adjustMainLayout
or this:
layout.adjust = function adjustMainLayout() { .... blah blah blah..
