I am using an ExpandBar and I am explicitly setting the ExpandItem heights to give optimal room for the preferred size of its content. (I am not using the standard layouting as I want to be able to distribute the available height the way I want if there is not enough vertical space).
When I set the ExpandItem height to a specific height, the ExpandItem is resized. However it is not resized to the height that I asked for but to 1 less on Windows 7 and 2 less on Linux with GTK3. Is there some way of getting these values in a generic way?
If I look into the source code it seems that the ExpandItem is subtracting an internal BORDER attribute if the ExpandBar "isAppThemed()". Neither isAppThemed() nor BORDER is publicly accessible.
Also I wonder if this describes the whole problem as the BORDER is defined in a non platform specific package and I get different results on Windows and Linux.
I think the question is clear but if anyone thinks he can help if there was a sample code I could create one.
