🚀 go-pugleaf

Hello,

I want to build a complex Glyph which contains Glyphs of varing size.
For sake of simplicity, imagine a Window displaying a HBox containing
two Labels separated by a HGlue. The application replaces one of the
Labels with larger new ones. What I'm trying to do is that the window
always resizes as needed. What actually happens is that the new lables
are only drawn within the extension? of the initial Label. I tried to
wrap the changing Label(s) within a Patch and calling
reallocate-redraw-reallocate on it, but without sucess.

Enlarging the Window manually (using the window manager) also only
enlarges the glue, but don't pushes the glue to get more space for the
now larger Label.

So I have two questions: (1) How can I force reallocation of all
components of the composite glyph and (2) is it possible to even ask
the window manager for a greater window if neccessary?

Thanks a lot,

		so long

			Norbert
