No, not if you want your app to be able to be used with Different 
Graphic cards or be XPlatform. XY is a prototype layout period. It does 
not translate well to different Video setups and will almost NEVER work 
when moving from one OS to another.

Maltisse on the other hand, will create the Layout for you. It does not 
use the XYLayout type structure. It builds the layout behind the scenes, 
so that you can concentrate on the RAD benefits of your layout paradigm. 
It works reasonably well with different Video setups and XPlatform. I 
have had to do some tweaking, but not major tweaking, using Maltisse.

Please refrain from using such language. I understand the context, but 
the language is against NG rules. Civility is what we all attempt to 
practice here. :)
