Place a toolbar next to another one

[Anonymous]

Hi there

Is there any way to place a toolBar next to another one in MEL ?

Say for example I've got these two toolbars:

string $window = `window`;
    formLayout;
        button "Toolbar 1";
toolBar -area "bottom" -content $window;

string $window = `window`;
    formLayout;
        button "Toolbar 2";
toolBar -area "bottom" -content $window;

I can then drag one next to the other one. But can it be done by script?

Thank you

Hi

I'm not sure if this is the recommended way of doing it, but I seemed to get it working by creating the toolBars and then editing their area afterwards like this:

string $window = `window`;
  formLayout;
    button "Toolbar 1";
$toolBar1 = `toolBar -area "bottom" -content $window`;

string $window = `window`;
  formLayout;
    button "Toolbar 2";
$toolBar2 = `toolBar -area "top" -content $window`;

toolBar -e -area "bottom" $toolBar2;

Cheers
