Thank you Rob for the solution - it looks good. I also kept
plugging away at the layout, trying *window.mode = #pixel*.
This also worked out quite well. FWIW, the code's below.
Note that I gave widgets a top/left position, and oftentimes
did not specify a height and width. Also note that I customize
for mac/win differences (not fully tested)
On a separate note, can one include copyright symbols or
trademarks in these dialog boxes?
thanks again Rob,
Jim
