Re: GWT Designer / Only Small Black Square

2011-02-24 Thread Eric Clayberg
For an old version of WIndows like that, the two ways to fix it are to
either upgrade to Windows Vista/7 or upgrade IE to the latest.

Under Window Vista/7 we can use WebKit to render the GWT widgets, but
that is not an option under XP.

On any system that we can't use WebKit, we use the OS default browser
which happens to be IE under WIndows, Mozilla under Linux and Safari
under OSX.

Unfortunately, IE 6 does not render those new standard mode widgets
correctly.

 Eric, Problem solved! Since you hinted that the version of IE might be
 a factor I upgraded from IE6 to IE8 and, hey!, the problem went away.

 Do you think this ought to be fixed in GWT Designer or since IE6 isn't
 very widely used maybe it should just be documented as an issue.

 I am curious how IE6 could affect the design and preview window. If
 IE6 were set to be the default browser on my computer it might make
 some sense. But since Chrome is my default browser, its kind of an odd
 thing.

 Anyway, I'm good now. Thanks

What version of eclipse are your running 32 or 64 bit? I had a problem 
similar to this a while back when the designer was first released. I was 
running 64-bit eclipse. When I moved back to the 32-bit version everything 
worked correctly. I haven't tried it since.

Eric,

IE6 on both machines. Almost all are using It since it is currently
our standard version of IE. Do you think IE6 could be our problem? I
can probably upgrade to IE8.

Yes, when running the app in development mode, the widgets behave
correctly.
