Those caracteristics should have their own defaults and you should be able to define new values to subgroups or child containers (toolbars, iconic view, etc.). A spacer could be used also to simulate an invisible widget taking space. I also agree that proportionnal dimension properties of the layout manager could be added, it would be really great to say: I want to use 1/3 - 2/3 for 2 widgets horizontally or 3/5 - 1/5 - 1/5 for my 3 columns, etc. Philippe _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
