Architecture design for Slicer flexible layouts

Back to Flexible Layouts Overview

Notes:

We discussed several ways of representing layouts including:

• html table style description

 <table name=A>
 <tr>
   <td>
     <table>
       <tr>
         <td> B </td>
       </tr>
       <tr>
         <td> F </td>
       </tr>
     </table>
   </td>
   <td> C </td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
   <td> D </td>
   <td> E </td>
 </tr>
 </table>

• Tk grid style description

 grid -row 0 -column 0 B
 grid -row 0 -column 1 -rowspan 2 C
 grid -row 1 -column 0 F
 grid -row 2 -column 0 D
 grid -row 2 -column 1 E

• css type description
• tree description

And settled on the tree for its ease of programmatic manipulation.
