Hi,

first thanks to Micah and Sean for your quick reply .
The PG_SZMODE_CNTFRACT-hint fit my needs perfectly.
Sorry, I've overlooked this property.

Here are some other questions I would like to ask:

LayoutManagement:
-----------------
I'm combining widget-boxes to realze a more complex dialog.
The background I've set to transparent mode so the frame of the box isn't
shown. This work's well in general but with nested widget-boxes I've the
problem that each nested container ocupies some space around it.
This is a big alignment problem because the widgets added to the nested
container have a kind of 'visual relation' (alignment) to widgets added to
other containers.

(It's hard to describe this problem by words - if you like to i'll add a
little screenshot to my next posting ?).

A solution for me would be to set the containers border to 0.
Can I do that ?
Another solution would be to provide a layout-manager like the
'GridBagLayout' in java.  Any other ideas ?


WindowManager:
---------------
I really like the way picoGui handles multiple windows. It's a perfect
solution for portabel/embedded systems. There is just one little extension
I'm missing:
In the border of a window you've the three buttons (close, rotate, ..) and
the name of the application. It would be great if the application-label
could be changed to a kind of combobox. If the application starts up the
application-name is shown. If the user touchs the combo it shows a list of
all other running applications. By selection the user can jump to one of
this other apps.
My Psion does task-switching in this way and it's of great help.
What do you think ?


Close Application:
------------------
If the user closes an application by the windows 'close'-button I've no
chance to prevent him from doing that.
I'm able to get the information that an app has been closed
(PG_WE_CLOSE-event) but I can not show a 'Data changed - want to save before
closing the app?'-dialog, so all data is lost.
How can I get this behavior ?


Thank's in advance for any help. I can asure you that I always have a closer
look at the documentation and code first and also at the mailing list before
I post a question.

Best regards and thanks for your time, kitkat >:)
