Hmm, I don't know :-) *If I well understood* he wants to keep the
dimensions of the DataView sync with the Window it lives in...
I didn't know Arrange.Fill and I don't want to test what the resulting
layout looks like, i.e. if proportions are kept for this purpose, but that
could do it - never used.
