Like I said, psudo code..
I just whipped it outta my but.
If I do implement this, I would certainly put more thought into it..

what if you have content in the negative nether reaches...? =)  Have to
find the smallest top, and subtract from the largest bottom.

0 is the answer I got.
Correct or not.

As for modifying getContentHeight/width,

The easyiest way would be:
(psudo code: can you tell I'm a VB coder at heart? hehe)

getContentHeight{
bigy=0

For each layer in children[]

    if layer.top + layer.height > bigy then
        bigy = layer.top+layer.height
    end if
next

return bigy;
}

getContentHeight
for the outer layer, which returns 0!! eh? Doug
