API : Controls and Offset

[Blackstorm]

Hello,

I am currently writting my own extension, i have done a small code part ^^ but i am blocked with the UI style

I am trying to add some controls headers and controls lines one above the other on a constant background but without knowing the exact offset (or height) of each element, and each element can have one or more lignes and never the same height.

so is it possible please ? if it's possible can you help me to know how ?


I have actualy something like that :

MMQTbg = WM:CreateControl("MMQT_Background", MMQTmain, CT_STATUSBAR)
MMQTbg:SetSimpleAnchorParent(0,0)
MMQTbg:SetResizeToFitDescendents(true)
 
function AddNewTitle(qindex, qlevel, qname)
    if not MMQTlabel[qindex] then
        MMQTlabel[qindex] = WM:CreateControl("MMQT_Label_"..qindex, MMQTbg , CT_LABEL)
        if qindex == 1 then
            local offsetTitle = 0
            MMQTlabel[qindex]:SetSimpleAnchorParent(0,offsetTitle)
        else
            local offsetTitle = (qindex -1) * 25
            MMQTlabel[qindex]:SetSimpleAnchorParent(0,offsetTitle)
        end
    end
    MMQTlabel[qindex]:SetFont("ZoFontAnnounceMessage")
    MMQTlabel[qindex]:SetText("["..qlevel.."] - "..qname)
end
 
for i=1, 6 do
    AddNewTitle(qindex, qlevel, qname)
end

this code work fine, but i'm looking for a way to automatically place the object

Thanks in advance ^^
