Ok, I need to use fill und hfill. I personally think the documentation is little confusing, but I will take this to the developers. Regards, Nathan On 08/14/2013 05:03 PM, Nathan Hüsken wrote:
Hey,
I am trying to understand how do a layout in wxHaskell. I am trying to make a frame with 2 text entries. One single lined at the top and one multiline below it. Both should expand with the window size horizontal. When the window is expanded vertical, only the multiline text entry should expand.
Her is what I wrote:
main = start mainFrame
mainFrame = do f <- frame [text := "BiVision"] buffer <- textEntry f [] mainArea <- textCtrl f [] set f [layout := expand $ column 2 [hstretch $ widget buffer, stretch $ widget mainArea]]
This gives me a window with the desired controls. But they are not expanding. Why? I tried different combinations of expand and stretch (I do not really understand the difference?). But nothing works.
I am guessing there is something simple I do not yet understand :).
Thanks for any help! Nathan
