To update you on my grid style. do http://anton.idatam.com.au/rebol/gui/demo-grid.r I think my grid has different goals than the grid being discussed most recently here on the list. I don't think it's really suitable for showing large numbers of records. I was trying more for an auto-layout of faces, so I might consider changing name to layout-grid or something. Anyway, you can see its purpose from the demo. Anton.

Hi Anton, et al << I think my grid has different goals than the grid being discussed most recently here on the list. I don't think it's really suitable for showing large numbers of records.

As far as naming, yes, this may get a bit confusing. grid is the standard term for most widgets of the table variety, but table is probably more accurate. I think BVQB/XBasic used the term grid for controlling the layout of child windows. "layout" is another good term, but it's taken as well. :) An organized layout, as you are doing, is often based on a canonical grid system. I think layout-grid is probably a darn good choice. :) --Gregg
