i get tired from th egui designer  , it is too difficult for me (new
lazarus user) to build my application forms in the lazarus way
i have seen this
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Autosize_/_Layout

but the way i used to make it in Qt designer was great see how Qt do
it

i need an easy way please to set the layout of my form , and group the
childs to make autosizing the parent form doesn't miss all the
children

That could work fine in Qt because it is a backend toolkit. Remember
that LCL serves as a wrapper of a lot of backends and therefore need
to adapt to all of them, the LCL way is indeed to use the autosizing /
layout which is very flexible. What difficulties are you facing? It's
indeed complicated, but you don't need to understand all of them,
simply pick the ones you need. I simply use AutoSize := true on almost
all controls and anchors them according to my needs, perhaps using
ChildSizing for grouping controls (e.g. TGroupBox) and that's all.
