The editor I'm building has a "master" editor (which draws itself as a
rounded rectangle) that contains 3 child editors. As the child editors
expand and contract to fit the content and the parent needs to resize to
match.
I tried handling this in a layout manager (resizing in the layout() call),
but this is called on the parent before it's called on the children, so you
can get:
parent.layout(), child.layout (), child.layout() ....
In other words, the children get theiur own layout calls after the parent,
so the parent can't catch up with their new size.
Is there a way to control the order of layout() calls (e.g. from the
bottom-up in the part tree), or should I just call invalidate the child
if/when the layout manager resizes it?
....Richard

Typically, layout is top-down, so your parent should position its children
first. The reason it is top-down instead of bottom up is that figures can
have a range of valid sizes, between minimumSize and preferredSize. Some
layouts may choose to give a figure a size somewhere between these two
sizes. Also, some layouts may stretch a figure to be larger than it wants,
for example a column of children, where each child has a different preferred
size, might instead stretch smaller children to be the sizse of the widest
child. The child can't layout until the parent has made these decisions.
Can you attach a screenshot of what you are trying to achieve?

It's an editor where each node in a state machine has several "handlers" =
--one called at entry, one called repeatedly while idling, and one =
called at exit. The challenge is that each handler's size and position =
could depend on the number of commands within, and the node's size is =
determined by the joint handler sizes. I'd like to avoid having =
scrolling parts within the nodes, but leave the scrolling to the =
top-level.
This is why I'm trying to lay out the screen beginning with the children =
-- the handlers size themselves to fit the commands, the nodes postiion =
the handlers within themselves, then the top-level editor positions the =
nodes.

That's an interesting thought, since you don't move/delete those boxes =
(you could copy the contents, though) -- think of each box as a field in =
a form, albeit with some structured content. I was expecting that =
on_entry, etc. would each be an EditPart since you can edit the contents =
(add, delete, and alter commands.) At the Node level, you can alter its =
name or some other properties, but it (Node) probably doesn't need a =
full editor.
My key concern is what happens when I add a new command to a handler =
(e.g. on_entry) -- that box grows larger and the change needs to bubble =
up to the root layout: repositioning the handler's siblings, probably =
enlarging the node, and possibly nudging some other nodes. My current =
solution is to add a custom layout manager at each level except the last =
(state machine - node - handler...but not command) with:
- layout() -- call validate() and getPreferredSize() on each child; =
resize and reposition the child. Update this container's preferred size =
to match.
- getPreferredSize() -- get this container's computed preferred size.
So a call to layout() triggers validate() on each of the children, which =
recursively invokes layout() on them, updating sizes and positions after =
the child's call to layout() returns. Is this a sensible way to go?

<DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>That's an interesting thought, since =
you don't=20
move/delete those boxes (you could copy the contents, though) -- think =
of each=20
box as a field in a form, albeit with some structured content. I =

expecting that on_entry, etc. would each be an EditPart since you can =
edit the=20
contents (add, delete, and alter commands.) At the Node level, you can =
alter=20
its name or some other properties, but it (Node) probably doesn't need =

<DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>My =

what happens when I add a new command to a handler (e.g. on_entry) -- =
that box=20
grows larger and the change needs to bubble up to the root layout:=20
repositioning the handler's siblings, probably enlarging the node, and =
possibly nudging some other nodes. My current solution is to add a =
custom=20
layout manager at each level except the last (state machine - node -=20
handler...but not command) with:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>- layout() -- call validate() and=20
getPreferredSize() on each child; resize and reposition the child. =
Update this=20
container's preferred size to match.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>- getPreferredSize() -- get this =
container's=20
computed preferred size.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>So a call to layout() triggers =
validate() on each=20
of the children, which recursively invokes layout() on them, updating =
sizes=20
and positions after the child's call to layout() returns. Is this a =
sensible=20
way to go?</FONT></DIV>
