Sure, HBox, VBox and Table uses this, but since it's not recommended, it wasn't made easier. You'd have to inherit from Container and place your children, taking care of required methods. I know understanding these layout managers are not easy, but give it a try, since after some experiments you'll get used. You can mail the list or mail me in private to get some feedback on how to do things. As I said before, maybe your app fits in Eagle scope, then you can use it, it's much simpler and I have pre defined layouts. Forms are just a matter of placing fields, labels are already done and aligned. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri -------------------------------------- Jabber: barbieri at gmail.com MSN: barbieri at gmail.com ICQ#: 17249123 Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (81) 9927 0010
