Hi,

I've got a few noddy athena widget questions. Apologies if these have been
asked before.

1)	How do you force a sub widget (in particular a box widget) to sit at the
bottom of a vpane widget?

2)	If I try to get the height of a box widget it seems to ignore the height
of its children. How can I get the combined height?

3)	Is there any way of finding out how many rows of widgets are in a box
widget?

Any help will be gratefully received.

Chris
