I am currently using this code to display a GUI counter:
```
:: counter ( -- )
"0" <label> tfont >>font :> lb
<shelf> :> s
[
s 0.5 >>align
lb add-gadget
"Count" <label> tfont >>font
[ drop lb [ dec> 1000 + >dec ] change-text drop s relayout ] <border-button>
add-gadget { 26 5 } >>gap
"Counter" open-window
] with-ui
;
```
The layout was not being resized in order to fit the contents of the label `lb`, which was being updated when the button was clicked.
However, even when I call [relayout](https://docs.factorcode.org/content/word-relayout,ui.gadgets.html) on the [shelf gadget](https://docs.factorcode.org/content/word-__lt__shelf__gt__,ui.gadgets.packs.html) `s`, the same still happens.
![Window with text "1600" on the left, overlapped lightly by button displaying "Count" on left](https://software.codidact.com/uploads/6jqgrw5zcjm6yzxyeytix3gosia0)
How do I update the layout correctly to accomodate the live changes?

Relayout call does not work on button click in Factor

I am currently using this code to display a GUI counter:
```
:: counter ( -- )
 "0" <label> tfont >>font :> lb
 <shelf> :> s
 [
   s 0.5 >>align
   lb add-gadget

   add-gadget { 26 5 } >>gap
   "Counter" open-window 
 ] with-ui
;
```

The layout was not being resized in order to fit the contents of the label `lb`, which  was being updated when the button was clicked.

However, even when I call [relayout](https://docs.factorcode.org/content/word-relayout,ui.gadgets.html) on the [shelf gadget](https://docs.factorcode.org/content/word-__lt__shelf__gt__,ui.gadgets.packs.html) `s`, the same still happens.
