Thank you very much!

Your code works for me, but I have the following questions:

- When I add a child panel to the inner DockLayoutPanel (p):
  How can I make them centered horizontally and vertically?
  (I tried an intermediary LayoutPanel as you did at the outer
DockLayoutPanel)

- How can I set the vertical size for the menubar container to match
its real height?
  It is hardcoded ("100").

Thanks
Magnus
