Indeed so, Malx, rubbery as hell. At least I hope I can get there, and with
some rules that will keep it from being as difficult as Java.
I have a dynlayer with two children.
The one on the left contains a number of LoadPanels,
and the one on the right contains a bunch of buttons made of
text, images, and/or gridbuttons. This panel will pushed to be as wide
as the widest of these individual buttons.
I position the whole widget on the left of the window, so that only
the buttons show. When the widget loads, each of the LoadPanels loads.
When a button is clicked, I show the correct loadpanel and slide the whole
widget out so you can see it. Clicking on the same button again slides it
back in, but clicking a different button merely shows its loadpanel.
The button that is marked (by virtue of being clicked) is the active one, with
its corresponding loadpanel visible.
Its really more complicated though. I have it so that it will work on all
four sides. (later, I plan on making it redockable too)
We needed it for an internal web based "Skills and Certifications" database
written in Domino R5, for resource allocation, and we were running out of
screen space. Someone saw my website and asked if I could do something like
it for the company.
