THE XmCenter WIDGET
 
 
The XmCenter widget is a comparable tiny manager widget. It lays out all its children in either one row or one column, depending on the resource settings. The widget provides a set of new resources for setting the spacing, orientation, border width, and much more. The primary purpose of the XmCenter widget is to center push buttons within dialog windows in either a row or a column. Below you'll see an example: 
The widget can be used either with Motif 1.1 or 1.2. It has been developed together with the ButtonFace Library and thus it's part of it. Unfortunatly there isn't a 'stand alone' package yet available. But that shouldn't matter - the ButtonFace Library is a really interesting package which gives your applications a distinctive look. 

The XmCenter widget is part of the ButtonFace Library package.
