Hi

I am trying to get a left hand like panel bar in my application, one much like the OneNote left hand(notebook) panel.

I have been trying to use a VBox with Buttons and setting the rotation on the buttons to 90. The buttons seem to disappear when I do this.

An example of what I am trying to achieve is here: http://www.rid00z.net/panelBarExample.png

What is the best way to achieve Vertically stacked buttons like this?
