Fix for wxAUI-0.9 floating pane size problem

[mandrav]

The floating pane size is ignored (at least with wx-2.6.2). This patch fixes the problem:

Code: Select all

Yep, I've run into this issue also (SetSizeHints() calling Fit()). Looks like a good patch. I'll try it out on Monday when I return home.

Best,

Applied. Thanks much. You'll see it in 0.9.1 soon.

Hello List,

I am really sorry to break in again in the forum, but I am having problems in making the patch working. Lines 377-382 of wxAUI should look like this now

Code: Select all

   
    if (pane.min_size.IsFullySpecified())
    {
        wxSize tmp = GetSize();
        GetSizer()->SetSizeHints(this);
        SetSize(tmp);
    }


I have modified a little bit the demo (all panes perspective) to have:

Code: Select all

m_mgr.AddPane(new SettingsPanel(this,this), wxPaneInfo ().
Name ( wxT ( "Resize" ) ).Caption ( wxT ( "Resize" ) ).Left ().
MaxSize ( wxSize(255, 160) ).MinSize ( wxSize(255, 160) ).
BestSize ( wxSize(255, 160) ).
FloatingSize ( wxSize ( 255, 160 ) ).
CloseButton ( false ).Fixed () );


But if I float the SettingsPanel it still has an height of 996 pixels, almost my screen height. Am I missing something? I'm on Windows XP, wxWidgets 2.6.2 (downloaded some weeks ago).

Thanks a lot for your help.

Andrea.

I'm having the same trouble. I've been able to get a floated pane to size properly by setting the pane's dock_proportion = 1 before adding it to the frame manager, but the contents of the pane are still being drawn as if they were in a larger frame (i.e., some of the pane's contents are not drawn because they're outside the frame). Anyone have any ideas what could be going on here?
