[REBOL] first time poster w/ questions.

Hello, list... been lurking for couple of weeks now while trying get a feel
for Rebol.
I must say so far, I really like it... makes a ton of things really fast and
easy.
Hopefully I can create some cool stuff.... anyway...
While coding a few mini-projects, Ive run into a few problems that I havent
been able to find answer to elsewhere. Their prolly pretty easy, just cant
find the right documentation.
1) In a GUI interface, lets say I have a button..
main: layout [
button "The Answer"
]
and I want the button when clicked to add a text field to the window.
similar to.
field "Text Here"
so far it seems I have to predefine everything I want to display.
But what if I dont know till later how many text fields I need until the
GUI is operating? Any way to dynamically add VID objects?
2) Lets say I have a window thats 200x100.
main: layout [
size 200x100
]
Now I want to add a bunch of text or fields and other stuff
vertically, but there isnt enough space and it bleeds off the
edges.
main: layout [
size 200x100
vh2 "Testing Text"
field "A text field"
vh2 "Testing Text"
vh2 "Testing Text"
field "A text field"
vh2 "Testing Text"
]
Questions is, how do I get the window itself to scroll either
vertically or horizontally so I dont have to alter the window size?
I really appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Jeremiah Grossman
