Abstract
Approaches are disclosed for maintaining spatial relationships (i.e., a layout) between a table object and other objects placed on a virtual canvas of an application work space. In certain implementations, offsets between the other objects and the table object are initially determined and are used to maintain the spatial relationships when the table object is resized. In certain implementations, the movement of the objects in response to a resize of the table object is dynamic from the user's perspective and can be easily undone.
