1: What is the GUI Layout Toolbox?

The GUI Layout Toolbox provides a package of MATLAB objects that allow for complex arrangement of graphical user interface elements within a figure window. The main capabilities provided are:

Automatic element arrangement horizontally, vertically or in grids
Ability to specify fixed sizes or resizing weights for each element
Ability to "nest" layouts to produce virtually any element arrangement
Divider bars for user-resizing of elements

These element arrangement capabilities are designed to match those found as standard in other user-interface toolkits such as Java Swing, GTK, QT etc.
