Hi,
I'd like to build an interface consisting of a left and a right pane.
The left one should have a fixed width (in pixel), the right one should
use up the remaining space. Both should stretch to full viewport height,
display a stretched background image and use a "Stack" for their content.
My current attempt looks like this:
+ Composite:HBox
+ Composite:Canvas // left panel
+ Image // the background
+ Stack
+ Canvas // left content pages
+ Canvas
+ ...
+ Composite:Canvas // right panel
+ Image
+ Stack
+ Canvas
+ Canvas
+ ...
I've been experimenting with flex and width: "100%", but nothing really
adds up to what I want it to look. One problem is, that the layout
managers usually either allow a percentage value or pixels, but not both
(likely by design, so some advice on this would be welcome, too).
Another one is, that the image doesn't seem to stretch to the parent
Canvas (despite using scale, allowGrowX/Y). I've tried doing this
manually by setting maxWidth/Height in a "resize" listener (which sort
of works), but that doesn't seem to adjust the size of the stack on top
of it, which always uses the initial image size.
Now, I could set all the element dimensions manually, but I imagine that
would be rather slow. I'd like to think that there's a better way to do
this. Any hints/ideas/links are welcome. I'm pretty new to qooxdoo and
still in the "confused-developer"-stage. :)
P.S: Oh, one unrelated question: Sometimes the generator spills out
multiple pages of "unknown class" errors for core classes like
qx.application.Standalone. I noticed this seems to be caused by a
missing ,/; somewhere, but it's a pain to find something like that. I've
tried the "lint" target, but that doesn't seem to catch it either. Any
advice? I've already spent hours on hunting commas :)
Thanks,
Dennis
