SplitPane's splitLocation(int) property should be splitRatio(float)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIVOT-236
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-236
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: wtk
Reporter: Todd Volkert
Assignee: Niclas Hedhman
Fix For: 1.3
Currently, the splitLocation property of SplitPane specifies the absolute pixel
value of the splitter within the split pane. This would be much more useful to
applications (and much less error-prone) if it were specified as a ratio of one
side of the split to the other (from 0.0f to 1.0f). This would have the
following benefits:
1) The caller can initialize the splitter location very easily, whereas
previously, you had to presuppose how the split pane would be laid out to give
a meaningul splitLocation property.
2) When the split pane is resized, granting proper allocations to each side of
the splitter becomes very easy, since the ratio stays the same.
