I have read this paper from Luca Cardelli around 1998. I have found it very interesting, and always have found the vbox and hbox model deceiving in comparison. I guess I have had since the first time I had read it the intention of one day implementing these stretching rules, but never become good enough or care enough to actually implement them.
But I really wish something like that (stretching rules) to be available inside Glade. The paper is now very old (written in 1988 I think). But I think that some of the ideas should have been implemented a long time ago in tools like Glade. Here is a place where you can download it without being a member of ACM (which I am not): http://lucacardelli.name/Papers/Toolkit.pdf Hope someone among you could at least read the section 2 and see if it can be used inside/with Glade. _______________________________________________ Glade-devel maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/glade-devel
