Resizing Splitter

Fahey Brian-2

I’ve been experimenting with resizing splitters. In the image below I’ve colored the resizing splitters with red backgrounds. 

 

Initially I added the name input field as a “left widget” in the top splitter.  This worked for expanding the name field to the right, but it also allowed the name field to expand past the search button and past the right edge of the window.  When there wasn’t any right widgets the minimum right size didn’t have any impact (makes some sense).

 

My hack solution was to add a “placeholder” widget colored with a green background.  Do I have other options?

You can use groups...
 
Multi-select a few widgets, right click and select Arrange->group. You then have a group/composite that you can position with Right side -120 from the proportion 1 (the right side of window). The vertical slider would be within the group and would be relative to the group.
 
You can solve that vertical slider without grouping though...
 
Green field:
    Position
        L proportion .5, offset 3
        R proportion 1, offset -5
Name field:
    Position
        L proportion 0, offset 70
        R proportion .5, offset -3
Vertical slider:
     Position
        L proportion .5, offset -2
        R proportion .5, offset 2
    Basics
        Left widgets (nameField_part)
        Right widgets (greenField_part)
