Hi, As you see there is some code duplication here. I would like to use Decoration as a library for X functions, to be used for creating decoration indeed. I don't know if we can abstract the Hide/Resource part (of Tabbed and DragPane), as Decoration was doing before, but I would like to think about that. Maybe I can come up with something. Is that ok?
