Hello, Sorry it took me a bit of time to react: I've progressed at the incredible rate of 3 lines of code per evening this week. :)

First wrapping is not wished. Second it requires a lot of widgets and that's really bad for performance (with genlist it might be ok-ish). I'm partly to blame on that because I think I still haven't opened a ticket about it. After some discussions with cedric on IRC, I finally wrote the following: http://pastebin.notk.org/pastebin.php?show=f4373cd46 . It's OCaml code but the binding is straight-forward and the approach can be reduced to: - create an elm_layout with the theme that will be used for the swallower - create the swallowee - for each possible content, set it in the swallowee, call elm_layout_sizing_eval(layout) and get the effective size with evas_object_size_hint_min_get() - get the max of each of the possible sizes - clean up the layout you've just created - when adding an actual element, use evas_object_size_hint_min_set() to give it a minimal size That ended up working well without being complicated (although it felt quite dirty). However due to usability concerns, I ended up dropping the column approach for now and I'll be putting everything back when there is a full support for spreadsheet-like widgets in elementary (or that I make one myself; wouldn't be bad to prototype). Right now I'm trying to disable a specific item of a segment control and can't get things to work at all. Screenshot is at http://i.imgur.com/WEKuQTT.png . That's pretty much the only remaining blocker. Is it even possible?
