Gaia isn't meant to do any specific layout functionality, it's a more general tool to support however you want to build your sites.  I don't want to tie it directly to any specifics.  The first link you sent has a really nice class for doing liquid layout.  Thanks for sharing it!  Smiley

but this would be a great help i think. if you build a website on noScale you need to align all your external loaded content and MovieClips to the stage, and let them
reposition on resize events so it looks the same on different clients resolutions. Would be really cool to integrate somethink like this easy layout manager to the framework
or a tutorial on how to do this clean would be helpfull as well.

That's a concrete implementation of a Flash site.  Gaia is an abstract framework.  It's easy to implement a liquid layout manager with Gaia, so if that's what your site needs, then you're free to do it.  Gaia is not meant to be a layout manager or provide specific development solutions like that.  It's meant to help you achieve them, not do them for you.

Hi,

no there're mine Smiley

BaseUI is part of another project and I wouldn't like that it is included/distributed in a framework right now. This another project won't shadow Gaia as it has a different purpose. I might change my mind later if Steven is interested to include it in Gaia, but for now it is too early.

Anyway, feel free to use and change even if you use Gaia and by the way, great on job on Gaia Smiley

ah i see
cool stuff
you must be the one i saw on the pv mailing list mentioning gaia recently?
http://www.nabble.com/automation-td17489038.html
i'm fis over there as well
you'll find me bitching about stupid bugs in great white Smiley
http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-Mousing-over-internal-edge-dispatches-OBJECT_OUT-sometimes-p17453728.html

btw automation is not particularly difficult
steven uses a panel in flash for Gaia for convenience rather than power or freedom
also, the os is no worry because jsfl abstracts that
but jsfl is somewhat limited

all that is done, essentially, is copy files, read files, search replace files, write files
this can be done many diff ways and there are plenty of tools
tough part is making it universal enough
don't want to leave anyone out

yes, really a good idea, a lot of projects need this. if it's integrated like tweenmax, it will save a lot of time.

Hi, kindly show me  an example (with the codes) of how to implement a Liquid Layout with gaia. thanks
