Hi,
just a little bit of self advertisment ;-)
Varun, you can use GuiBuilder to create such design in 5 min.
TRootEmbeddedCanvas is not yet in GuiBuilder widget pallete
but you can copy&paste it from guitest.C.
An alternative to "divide your canvas" create several TRootEmbeddedCanvases.

Regards. Valeriy
