Read about the constraint resources of the composite widget which
is the parent of the command buttons.  The parent manages the layout
of the command buttons, and the constraint resources allow the parent
to vary the layout policy according to the resource values.  The 
constraint resources of the composite widget apply to each child of
the composite; they allow the children to give individual layout
requirements.
