How to Resize FillLayout in 2.0? [message #1060166] Thu, 23 May 2013 11:39 Go to next message

Hi,

While converting a 1.4 app to 2.0 I noticed that the browser resize doesn't work anymore on a FillLayout. I checked the 1.5 and the 2.0 migration guides, but didn't see anything specific about this.

Is there a solution for that in 2.0, or do I have to wait for the display resize event in 2.1?

Kind Regards,

Erwin

Hi Erwin,
just did a small test with RAP 2.0 - maximized Shell with FillLayout and
child Composite. Resizing of the browser does a resize of the child
Composite. I don't see any problem. Could you provide some lines of code
to demonstrate the issue?
Best,
Ivan

Ivan,

Thanks for the reply. It is a bit difficult to post an complete example here because there are quite a few classes involved.

When looking for code to show here I noticed that it is likely not related to the FillLayout, but to the FormLayout. The code below, which is a shameless copy of the sample code, creates a header, a sidebar and a mainArea.

The form shows up correctly, but it won't resize.

Tested with FF-20.0 and Safari, both on Mac.

Any help is highly appreciated.


Kind Regards,

Erwin

    private void createContent(Shell shell) {
        FormLayout layout = new FormLayout();
        shell.setLayout(layout);
        
        Control header = createHeader(shell);
        header.setLayoutData(createHeaderFormData());
        
        sidebar = createSidebar(shell, someData);
        sidebar.setLayoutData(createSidebarFormData());
        
        mainArea = createMainArea(shell);
        mainArea.setLayoutData(createMainAreaFormData());
        
        statusArea = createStatusArea(shell);
        statusArea.setLayoutData(createStatusAreaFormData());
    }


   private FormData createMainAreaFormData() {
        FormData data = new FormData();
        data.top = new FormAttachment(0, HEADER_HEIGHT + 20);
        data.left = new FormAttachment(0, 230 + 10);
        data.right = new FormAttachment(100, -20);
        data.bottom = new FormAttachment(100, -30);
        return data;
    }

Hi Erwin,
the following code works for me in both RAP 2.0 and 2.1RC1:

public class SimpleEntryPoint extends AbstractEntryPoint {

@Override
public void createContents( Composite parent ) {
parent.setLayout( new FormLayout() );
Composite composite = new Composite( parent, SWT.NONE );
composite.setBackground( parent.getDisplay().getSystemColor(
SWT.COLOR_DARK_CYAN ) );
composite.setLayoutData( createMainAreaFormData() );
}

private FormData createMainAreaFormData() {
FormData data = new FormData();
data.top = new FormAttachment( 0, 50 + 20 );
data.left = new FormAttachment( 0, 230 + 10 );
data.right = new FormAttachment( 100, -20 );
data.bottom = new FormAttachment( 100, -30 );
return data;
}

}

Best,
Ivan

Hi Erwin,

if you forget the main loop in a snippet running in SWT mode, you get
exactly this behavior. Unlikely that this is the problem in your case,
it's just something to double-check...

Ivan,

Your example works for me as well...

In my EntryPoint class I implemented EntryPoint i.o. extending AbstractEntryPoint.

Haven't completely figured it out yet, but I am sure it has something to do with that. At least now I have something to build on.

Thanks again for your help.

Kind Regards,

Erwin
