Hi list,

I am interested in the rationale behind the <block rows=".." rowSpacer=".."> 
syntax.
I think it is a bit unituitive and also in the wrong palce. But I might be 
wrong.

In my opinion it should be some kind of:

<layout>
...
<container block="blockname" x=".." y=".." width=".." height="..">
        <entry x=".." y=".." width=".." height=".." field="field in block"/>
...
</container>
</layout>

The container block should get scrollbars automagically. There is no need to 
tell how many rows are displayed, because height does that.

My problem at the moment is that I can show detail rows, but it is very hard 
and unituitive to interact with them. To scroll, I have to give a detail 
entry the focus and then use the next recordset button in the toolbar instead 
of using a scrollbar. Also it is impossible to bind a button to a row, well 
not impossible, but quite hard.

Sorry if I got a bit into ranting, but I would rather spend my time improving 
gnue instead of working on workarounds.

Thanks for any comments

Robert
