No, I was trying to say I was struggling to visualize what it is that you are trying to achieve with Fl_Pack. In particular, based on my (limited and presumably flawed) understanding of the description you gave, I wonder if you need the packs at all. A simple Fl_Group will scale it's children as it resizes, retaining their relative positions and dimensions in proportion to the initial layout, so by judicious use of groups (nested or otherwise) I *think* you can get the desired effect more simply than you are currently doing. So, anyway, Fl_Pack may be overkill, and I find them tricky to use. Fl_Group is simpler to use and for most purposes I find it a much more amenable widget to work with... But, as I say, I'm probably completely missing the point of your question and there may be a genuine need for Fl_Pack in your usage. _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list fltk@easysw.com http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
