Thanks!

I am trying to implement some graphical structures into HID_attribute arrays to 
allow for a bit more flexible dialog layouts. The reason for this was that the
ps exporter dialog, which has the most options currently becomes taller than my 
screen on my laptop (1280x800).
Currently I have an implementation to add notebook tabs to the attribute structure, 
but I am thinking also of a multi column layout.
When in batch mode pcb will happily ignore these attributes.

I posted a screenshot last Sunday with a (working) example:
