Re: Stack Layout Panel - strange layout problem after switching tabs!
Dear Philippe,
yeah this was the reason and the workaround works as hell! Many
thanks! This saved my fascination for building GWT apps! :-)
But some questions remain:
Why does this only affect IE7? I first thought that it was a bug
originated in the browser specific generated code. But I could
reproduce it in hosted and web mode, but only in IE7, not in FF. So,
where exactly is the bug?
It seems that it only affects DockLayoutPanel inside a
StackLayoutPanel. I remember that the bug was not present when I had
other Panels inside my StackLayoutPanel.
For now, I just implemented a forceLayout method in MyStackLayoutPanel
as follows:
-
public class MyStackLayoutPanel extends StackLayoutPanel
{
...
public void forceLayout ()
{
IteratorWidget itr = iterator ();
while (itr.hasNext ())
{
Widget w = itr.next ();
if (w instanceof DockLayoutPanel)
{
((DockLayoutPanel) w).forceLayout();
}
}
}
-
As you can see, I only handle children that are DockLayoutPanels,
because I know that my problems are solved with it. However, how would
a more generic workaround look like?
And last but not least: Will this be fixed in future GWT versions?
(This is not the first IE7-specific piece of code in my project...)
Again, a thousand thanks!
Magnus

Hi, sorry for the delay, but I cannot check it out until tomorrow. It sounds very interesting and I am total curious!

Re: Stack Layout Panel - strange layout problem after switching tabs!
Hi, I could not find anything about IE DOM explorer. I see the problems with IE7, and there is no such plugin. However, the bad layout does not appear on initial loading, it appears after switching the stack. It's weird, but I can reproduce it. I don't see any part of this animation mechanism in the hands of the programmer, because it's all encapsulated within the GWT library. So I cannot imagine, what I can do or change? In general, I am so happy with GWT, but such problems prevent me from building fine apps! :-) Magnus -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Stack Layout Panel - strange layout problem after switching tabs!
The best way to explore the DOM with IE7 is to open the app with IE8, press F12, click on Browser Mode and select IE7. Then you can use this Developer Tool panel to explore the DOM. I was able to recreate the problem in IE7 and I notice that 2 nested divs have a height of 21px. Setting their height manually to 100% solves the problem, but I don't know why their height is 21px to begin with. My guess is that you are hitting this bug. There is a relatively easy workaround that I have verified to work in my applications, you might want to give it a shot: http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=5245 (Very nice chess app by the way!)

Stack Layout Panel - strange layout problem after switching tabs!
Hello, I have a StackLayoutPanel, where the content panels are DockLayoutPanels. One of these panels contains a ScrollPanel, which contains a FlexTable. So the hierarchy is as follows: StackLayoutPanel - DockLayoutPanel - ScrollPanel - FlexTable (in center) However, sometimes the FlexTable is misplaced, right after selecting the tab: https://picasaweb.google.com/104334857964624808900/GWT#5575015619744351906 This happens only when there is another tab selected first and one switches to this one. (and only in IE, not in FF) I already found that it's the ScrollPanel that is not laid out correctly, but I don't know why. I always thought that the center widgets of a DockLayoutPanel are always stretched... I do not expect a final solution, but I would be glad if I knew where to begin? Could someone point me into a good direction? Thank you Magnus -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Stack Layout Panel - strange layout problem after switching tabs!
Did you try explicitely setting the CSS height of your ScrollPanel to 100%? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.
