Table size too big !

[Mike Holme <M Holme doc mmu ac uk>]

Hi,

   I have an application that uses a table to layout various widget. The
Table is 28 by 20 and I intend it to be homogenous. However when I
select homogenous the table causes the window to be 3 times the width of
the screen. I understand that the size is based on the largest element
in the table. In this case I have some buttons which are much wider than
they have to be (I only need them to be as wide as the text on them) and
I think the rest of the table is based on them. My question is this, how
can I forced the buttons to be smaller in size (less wide - equal to the
text they hold) and thus make the rest of the table smaller. 
   Has anybody else had similiar problems. Hope this is clear enough.

Mike
