Is it possible to center a widget in a resizable area using one of the standard
Motif widgets?  I would like to replicate the window resize behavior of the
three default buttons of a message dialog, but I can't figure out how to
center the middle button.  I don't want the buttons themselves to change size,
just the space between them.  My various attempts with Form widgets have all
failed so far.  (Buttons change size, circular constraints, not accurately
centered, edge of button positioned instead of center of button, etc.)  Help
appreciated.
