The recomputeChildLayout method is the answer I was looking for.


You describe copying the paint method into the paint content 
method. I did the exact opposite and copied from the paintContent 
method to the paint method and it worked. I am getting pretty 
comfortable with using simple display, but I will probably look 
to minigui in the future. This application is just for me to use 
so I don't need interactive buttons and so forth.

Thanks for making these libraries available. I'm also using your 
sqllite and http2 modules so far. :)
