Re: how to center a panel within another panel?

I suggest you to re-think the use CellPanels (this includes VerticalPanel, HorizontalPanel and almost every gwt Panel) to create the layout. They end up being html tables and normally you don't want that. The cleanest approach I found was to use only FlowPanels each one with their ID and then use CSS to do the layout.

I hope it helped you

You can place equal sized panels in the left/right (and/or top/bottom,
not sure how you're trying to center) of the DockLayoutPanel, before
adding the center panel.  The center panel will then be centered
between them.  But note with the layout panel methodology, the center
panel will take the full remaining width (height).  It won't take a
widget and center it based on the size of its contents.
