Best way to prevent deformed IDL widgets? [message #3754]

I am using IDL to create some widgets for data handling. When I create the
window and place the widgets in it, IDL will stretch the last widget
in a row so that it matches the width of the window. This means for
instance, that if I try and put three buttons at the bottom of a wide
window such as PRINT USE and CLOSE I get:

| PRINT | | USE | | CLOSE |

with the close button being stretched out of shape.

Is it possible to either (a) stretch all buttons in proportion or
(b) prevent this stretching mechanism by a simple method (fixing the
size of the widgets directly makes it awkward to update at a later
date)

Thanks
