Hi,

just for my own interest:
how does the layout of qooxdoo work?
do you calculate all positions of widgets etc depending on the window-size?
What is the different to the usual HTML-sh..?

Maybe this is a "not-too-easy-explain"-question but I really want to know this 
;)


Thanks
Tobias

Hi Tobias,

It might be feasible to do but not out of the box. In 0.8 we separated 
the layout manager from the widgets. The layout manager always works 
with instances of the abstract class "LayoutItem". Right now the only 
concrete sub class of LayoutItem is Widget (let's ignore spacers for the 
moment) but widgets are probably to heavy for a classic web page. It may 
be interesting to evaluate how a very light weight layout item would 
perform. Maybe just a very small wrapper for a single DIV element, which 
implements the methods required by the layout manager. If this works I 
would expect a file size to be about 200KB.

Best Fabian
