FlowPanel doesn't *do* layout its children; this means that one widget changing its size could lead to sibling widgets being resized too, without the FlowPanel being even notified about it (e.g. change some InlineLabel's text and suddenly another InlineLabel wraps, changing its size). I therefore don't think a FlowLayoutPanel is even possible. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
