Hi steelx7000,

The gadget 'splitter' is not totally intuitive, but work well.
The step #7 is important

1. Draw first gadget (ie: a ExplorerTreeGadget)
2. Draw Second gadget near first (ie: a ExplorerListGadget)
3. On toolbox, select splitter gadget
4. A dialog box will open
5. Select first and second gadget you want in dropdown menu.
6. Clic on 'Draw' button
7. Select with mouse (like a lasso) the two objects
8. The VD merge the two gadgets as one (4 handles instead of 8 )
9. In tollbox > Constant, select options (vertical/horizontal etc)

The trouble is when the VD ask you to select (with mouse) the two gadgets, there is no tooltip an no specific mouse-cursor to indicate what to do. So we think that's all but the VD don't write rest of code needeed (SplitterGadget() ).

If you want to edit splitter, clic on it (the selection show the two gadgets as one, clic on center bar)
If you want to remove spliter, clic on it and delete it, both gadgets find their original handles.
