Thank you all so much for your hints: now I understand the real purpose and design of Fl_tile! I think I'll opt for a derived Fl_Group as suggested by Ian and Greg. Mainly by Greg, I thought his description was pretty good. I might be tempted to make his resizer widget out of a group, so that

I would like to make each widget vertically resizable, so an Fl_tile seems a good choice for a container. IIRC, Fl_Tile imposes some constraints on how its children resize. For a general description of how resizing works in FLTK, see resizable() at http://fltk.org/doc-1.3/classFl__Group.html
