Thanks Sebastian once more,
It works. :-)
var label = new qx.ui.basic.Label('Hi I'm a label');
alert(label.getPreferredWidth());
It serves for knowing the width needed for the header of a column (so that
it isn't clipped), or if I know the data cells have numbers of at most 5
digits, I can calculate the width in this way:
requiredColunmWidth=Math.max(new qx.ui.basic.Label('Column
title').getPreferredWidth(), new
qx.ui.basic.Label('0000')..getPreferredWidth())
Do you see?
I try as much as possible assigning pixels to dimensions, because everything
I do is dynamic.
