Hi Guys, I'd really like to create some multi column support. A sidebar or 3 columns would help me a lot. In each column I would love to be able to query and use lua like I'm used to. Can someone help me get started with this? Tables don't cut it since I can't do queries within tables.

Nice. I would love to see every "window"-ish thing generalized into something like this. Even the panels can, in fact be just "windows", with some "stickiness" to left/right/top/bottom and size/moving/resizing constraints. :slight_smile: But that would need some additional work on SilverBullets core…
