Compatibility note

This class has been superseded by grid-layout, and will probably be removed at some point in the future. The examples below demonstrate the use of grid layouts as an alternative to forms.

Example

(setq children (list

                "Button:"

                (make-instance 'capi:push-button 

                               :text "Press Me")

                "Enter Text:"

                (make-instance 'capi:text-input-pane)

                "List:"

                (make-instance 'capi:list-panel 

                               :items '(1 2 3))))

(capi:contain (make-instance

               'capi:grid-layout

               :description children

               :x-adjust '(:right :left) 

               :y-adjust :center))
