It looks like Spacings has to be set to some value(s) given in typesetters
"points" (1/72 of an inch), if we want to set ItemAspectRatio to a list.
GraphicsGrid[
{
{
"Z-coordinate",
"Radius"
},
{
Slider[Dynamic[h], {-2, 2, 0.25}, Appearance -> "Labeled"],
Slider[Dynamic[r], {0, 1, 0.25}, Appearance -> "Labeled"]
},
{
Graphics[
Locator[Dynamic[s]],
PlotRange -> 2,
Frame -> True,
Axes -> True
],
Dynamic[
Graphics3D[
Sphere[{s[[1]], s[[2]], h}, r],
PlotRange -> 2,
Axes -> True,
AxesLabel -> {"x", "y", "z"}
]
]
}
},
ItemAspectRatio -> {0.05, 0.05, 1},
Dividers -> {All, {True, False, True, True}},
Spacings -> {100, 10}
]
