I have a table-panel% on PLaneT that I use. This aligns GUI elements into a grid pattern. It may meet your needs. <a href="http://planet.plt-scheme.org/display.ss?package=table-panel.plt&owner=williams">http://planet.plt-scheme.org/display.ss?package=table-panel.plt&owner=williams</a> Doug <div class="gmail_quote">2009/7/24 Ivanyi Peter <<a href="mailto:pivanyi@freemail.hu">pivanyi@freemail.hu</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi, I will need a grid or spreadsheet style GUI widget in my application. I have some ideas and some preliminary work. However I would like to ask two questions: - Is it possible to position some sort of an editor% or text% in a canvas%? I am thinking of pixel positioning. I thought I would need this to easily edit a cell and I could avoid implementing an edit box. - Is it possible to create this GUI widget with some snips? If yes, can someone point me to a similar usage of snips? Somehow I still do not fully understand the use of snips. :-( Thanks, Peter Ivanyi _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: <a href="http://list.cs.brown.edu/mailman/listinfo/plt-scheme" target="_blank">http://list.cs.brown.edu/mailman/listinfo/plt-scheme</a> </blockquote></div>
