WidgetGroup

The functionality provided by GUIKit has been superseded by the interface construction and controls functions native to the built-in Wolfram Language.

WidgetGroup[{content, …}]

specifies custom layout settings for how the content widgets are displayed.

Details and Options

  • To use WidgetGroup, you first need to load GUIKit using Needs["GUIKit`"].
  • WidgetGroup can be used instead of default simple List structures to add optional custom layout features.

Examples

Basic Examples  (1)

Wolfram Language code: Needs["GUIKit`"]

Change the layout of the buttons to a row (as opposed to a column):

Wolfram Language code: ref = GUIRun[Widget["Panel", WidgetGroup[{ Widget["Button", {"text" -> "Button A"}], Widget["Button", {"text" -> "Button B"}], Widget["Button", {"text" -> "Button C"}] }, WidgetLayout -> Row]]]
Wolfram Language code: GUIScreenShot[ref]
