No, that would a horrible mess and terrible to maintain. At least for controls there are good reasons to use native controls and loose the easiless of implementing one solution for everywhere, like accessibility and native look. But for a layouter, which has no visible parts, implementing it with native controls would be just waste of time, because you need to maintain various connections to native layouters as well as a non-native layouter for platforms without one, while just the non-native one would do the job as good as or even better for all platforms with 1 implementation. -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
