Removing layout gaps

Are there any tricks to be able to remove gaps in a layout with CWorkingArea? Double clicking on a window will maximize, and dragging into an area will cause the window to move to that space but the window likes to be anchored to either the top, bottom, left, right. Perhaps a special action to remove any nearby free space?

I’m letting users drag to design their own layout (as they can add as many windows as they want) but there always seems to be a small space or gap somewhere in the CWorkingArea. Most users use a simple 2 windows on top, one on the bottom. Right now I’m thinking of a variety of predesigned Grids and that be deploy / dropTree’d. Any other suggestions?

thanks!

Oops - my error. I was using

setLocation(CLocation.base().normalSouth(.5));

instead of

setLocation(CLocation.working(workingArea).south(.5));

Now I am a bit confused… is there still a problem or is it solved? :confused:

Fixed for CWorkingArea. It is good about filling unused space, as long as you use location correctly. :slight_smile:
