Hi,

I want to decorate(place/layout) the child figures in the container figure
in a certain manner
I want to know what code goes into LayoutManager and what goes in
LayoutEditPolicy.
The algorithm for determining the size and location goes in the layout
manager..
Can I just use an XYLayoutEditPolicy and.. in the layoutmanager keep my
specific
code to placve the figures in a certain manner.

PS: i want to dock the child figures in parent figure
(top/left/right/bottom)

I would also like to change the docking on the fly by dragging the child
figure inside the parent
etc.

Certainly. The layout manager shouldn't be determining what the correct
docking position is and such. It should just provide a method that a client
can use to specify the dock location.
