Gambas widgets are a set of objects that can tell some wishe to there
parents :
- i Want to take all place i can...(Expand=TRUE)
- i Want to be free to be pleced where i want   (Ignore=TRUE)
- I want to have a little bit place between me and the parent border
(Padding = n pixels)

Gambas Containers ares a set of objects that inherit Widget and that arrange
theire child in function of theire zorder, theire which, and a defined
orientation or mode.

the mode is defined by the arrangement mode.  (
container.arrangement=arrange.vertical)

there is 5 mode of arrangement:
  - None : do nothing
  - Vertical : arrange the children by giving them the container
width(-padding) and maintain their height, and by putting them ones at
bottom of others (reach the zorder)
 - horizontal : arrange the children by giving them the parent height and
maintain their width, and by putting them ones at right of others (reaching
the zorder)

  - row : same as horizontal but objects can't be expanded and when the line
is full then objects are pushed to the bottom (like a toolbar)

  - column : same as row for vertical.


the container have 2 property :
  -padding : set the space between the container border and its children

  - spacing: set the space between its children


There is nothing new ... it really look like html table sizing... with
gambas there is many time i've not used the _Resize event.

This is maybe the more bad english text i've done (maybe not), i'm french...
please scuse me !
