Description Tod Creasey CLA 2003-06-19 16:21:56 EDT 
The WorkbenchLayout class is complicated and difficult to maintain. We should 
replace it with a FormLayout which is much easier to maintain.

Version 1.51.6.5 has the layout converted. However it still needs better error 
checking and a fix for Bug 39140
Comment 1 Nick Edgar CLA 2003-06-25 12:24:19 EDT 
Should also investigate replacing the layout of workbench parts (views, editor 
area, tab folders, etc) with FormLayout.
Comment 2 Tod Creasey CLA 2003-06-25 14:46:45 EDT 
The current fix cannot be applied until the extra resize in Bug 39337 is 
addressed.
Comment 3 Stefan Xenos CLA 2004-01-23 16:31:09 EST 
WorkbenchLayout has been replaced by TrimLayout in the new_look stream. This
should be much easier to maintain.
