Form building in IDL. [message #32461] Mon, 07 October 2002 15:22

Hello-

I am trying to do something which seems like it should be simple, but I am
having problems doing it in IDL. I'm developing a widget which contains 2
columns. The left column will have a bunch of widget labels and the right
column will have an equal number of text widgets. The right column will be
significantly wider. I want each label to line-up vertically with it's text
widget and all the labels to be left justifed to each other and all the text
widgets to be left justified to each other. I also want each column to only
be as wide as the width of the longest widget in it's column. After playing
with various combinations of base widgets and options I have not been able
to produce this. I was hoping the GRID_LAYOUT option would work, but this
causes both the width and height to be the same for every cell. Is there
some option like GRID_LAYOUT which only operates on height and not width?

Any help greatly appreciated.
