Table as layout vs. data store

Thanks for the offer @Connor_McCormick .

Basically, I want to layout a 2x2 grid on a page so that I can position some progress bars (Rectangle()'s that are sized based on a formula) as well as some supporting numbers (calculated by formulas) that are underneath them.

Right now I have to position them using spaces to artificially push something over the the right of something else (wish there were tab stops for that), or just let them go vertically down the page.

Again, this is a grid for layout purposes, but something you would have naturally used a table in a GDoc or Word Doc to serve a similar purpose.

I’d love to hear your argument as to why something like this wouldn’t exist though. I think it would help me understand the Coda design philosophy as it relates to things like this.

It seems like one approach may be for me to use this hack…

Thanks!
