Hi

I'm not the best Java programer so I need some help creating a sizable
dialog. I have downloaded and installed Jigloo as help.

I would like to create a sizable dialog in the same way as I do with
Borland Builder (C++), Delphi (pascal) or (VB)

You just place a number of items with give coordinates and sizes.
Then you anchor each control's left/top/right/bottom with a given
distance relative to the edges of the dialog.

As example a text box's top and bottom are anchored to the top of
the dialog, left side anchored to the left side, and the right
size is anchored right. Now the box's width follow the width
of the dialog but not the height.

Java is the most popular stuff right now and there must be a
easy way to do this. If not then Java programers are
happy as long the don't start using other languages.

Any help solving my Java problem!

Hi,

you have to implement a jface.dialog with the style SWT.RESIZE an with a
GridLayout in it. Then you can tell any widget in the GridLayout if it
should change size or not.

Bye Stefan
