Hello,

I'm writing a program which collect data continually over the network and can't
know in advance how meny widgets it will use. What I do is to open a paned
widget and add it children widgets as the program collect the data.

My problem: the panedWidgetClass resizes its child widgets instead of expand,
very quickly I'm stuck with meny widgets 1 pixel high.

What I want it to do: Expand the window as necessery when I add new children
widgets to it.

I'm using the X toolkit with the Athena widgets.

Please mail me answers directly, as our news feed is not reliable.

Thanks in advance,
