I wrote that I thought there was a bug with alignment in vboxes. The problem
was that the following code fragment didn't seem to work right:
layout.hbox(layout.vglue(5 * 70),
layout.vbox(layout.vglue(),
new Circle(100, kit.foreground(),
new Brush(1.0)),
layout.vglue()));
After tracing through various execution paths and staring at the code for
a few more hours, I saw that if the alignment of the first vglue object
was set to 1.0, then things would work. E.g., the following code "solves"
the problem outlined in my previous message:
layout.hbox(layout.vglue(5 * 70, fil, 0, 1.0),
layout.vbox(layout.vglue(),
new Circle(100, kit.foreground(),
new Brush(1.0)),
layout.vglue()));
Is my fix just a bug workaround, or is this really what you have to do to make
it work? If the latter is true, I'm confused.
