{\large {\bf Managed windows}}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are several types of window that are directly controlled by the
|
|
|
|
window manager (such as MS Windows, or the Motif Window Manager).
|
|
|
|
Frames may contain windows, and dialog boxes may directly contain controls.

{\large {\bf Window layout}}
|
|
|
|
|
1999-08-15 14:35:03 -04:00
|
|
|
There are two different systems for layouting windows (and dialogs in particluar).
|
|
|
|
One is based upon so-called sizers and it requires less typing, thinking and calculating
|
|
|
|
and will in almost all cases produce dialogs looking equally well on all platforms, the
|
|
|
|
other is based on so-called constraints and allows for more detailed layouts.
|
