So now that I have everything going great horizontally ... any tips on
my vertical problem? The split pane seems to want to go to height 0
unless I give it a specific preferred height. Putting it in a Boxpane
with horizontal orientation and fill:true doesn't seem to want to
stretch it out either. Nor does sticking a border around it - my naive
attempts at getting this to work so far...any tips?

Thanks so much for the great help,

- Mark
