The layout managers only do the calculations. The renderers need to do the real work, i.e. apply the calculation to the line to be rendered. The LM can help by splitting up the line in a number of text areas, or the renderer can scan the unsplit text areas and apply stretching to the white space in it. There was a discussion about this topic on this list some time ago. Regards, Simon -- Simon Pepping home page: http://www.leverkruid.nl
