This is currently not supported, but now that the adapters are here, it should be easier.
A workaround now would be to implement your own MorphicContainerAdapter and to have your own bindings

How might I get behaviour like TableLayout [1] with Spec. This is for laying out a variable number of icons in a Command Toolbar, that when the width is reduced the icons wrap around to a second line.

Okay, what would you call such a new class? MorphicTableContainerAdapter ? Will that naming conflict with the new Table/Grid widget you indicated in another thread you were going to work on? Could that be called a Grid rather than a Table? Or do you have another preference for naming MorphicTableContainerAdapter ? e.g. MorphicTabularContainerAdapter, MorphicFlowContainerAdapter or another?
MorphicFlowContainerAdapter, this one sounds cool :) But you could also notice that I suck at picking names, so :P
So it seems that that MorphicContainerAdapter is referenced only from MorphicAdapterBindings as #ContainerAdapter, which itself is referenced only from ContainerModel class>>defaultSpec. ContainerModel is referenced as 'type' from SpecLayout>>initialize and SpecLayout class>>composed, with the 'type' of the latter overwriting the former. So that would seem to be the link in point asâ¦
SpecLayout class>>tableComposed ^self new type: #TableContainerModel; yourself
This seems correct :)
(Do you have any other naming preferences? e.g. #composedTable or another preference) ?
The other references to ContainerModel from MonticelloRepositoryBrowser, WorkingCopyToolBar, CheckboxExample & DropListExample would seem irrelevant to my cause. However I don't know what to make of SpecIntepreter>>computeSpecFrom: aSymbol selector:. Will that require any consideration in creating a new MorphicTableContainerAdapter ?

I opened a case in fogbugz [1], where I think things are in place :P Then you could fix the method flowComposed on MorphicContainerAdapter to make it do what you want :P I used this snippet as test: l := SpecLayout flowComposed. l add: #listModel. l add: #listModel. l add: #listModel. l add: #listModel. l add: #listModel. l add: #listModel.
