Description

This macro lays a series of gadgets out vertically, creating the necessary column layout for you automatically.

The options are passed directly to the column layout, and thus can be any legitimate combinations of init-keywords for <column-layout>. If no options are specified, then the default values for table layout are used.

The panes argument consists of a number of Dylan expressions, each of which creates an instance of a gadget or layout that is to be included in the vertical layout.

Example

contain(vertically (border: 5, equalize-widths: #t) 
            make(<button>, label: "Hello");
            make(<button>, label: "World") 
        end);
