Description Milos Kleint 2002-04-29 09:54:02 UTC

using dev build from 29/April/2002, Win2000.

I get doubled scrollbars when invoking Ant
Settings/Properties custom property editor.
Besides being ugly, one has to use both the
scrollbarsi n order to scroll all the way to the
end of line.

Looks like problem of property editor.

Comment 3 akemr 2002-04-29 16:48:00 UTC

Hmm, I didn't change scrolling in custom property editor.
In NB 3.3.1 it works.

CCing Properties module - does something change in properties
editor??

[Milos please don't use JPEG for screenshots...GIF or PNG is non-lossy.]

Trung I would guess this is a regression triggered by issue #20570.

Comment 5 akemr 2002-04-30 10:02:56 UTC

I also think it's caused by #20570, so reassigning to Trung.

I'll attach patch/hack to NbPresenter which works fine for
Properties custom editor.

Comment 7 Jesse Glick 2002-04-30 22:27:27 UTC

Yuck, that's evil-looking.

Maybe the patch for issue #20570 should just be backed out. The
original problem was *not* with random special components displayed in
dialogs, which generally already use JScrollPane if it makes sense.
The problem was with message panes where the displayed object is a
String, and a GUI component is generated for you - with no scrolling
ability. However JOptionPane is used to display the messages, not
NbPresenter directly. Maybe #20570 should just be WONTFIX and anyone
displaying a long text message should just be responsible for
reformatting it into a GUI component with a decent layout.

Comment 8 _ ttran 2002-05-07 09:35:24 UTC

Okay, I take a safer route.  JScrollPane will be inserted in between
only if the _minimumSize_ is larger than the screen not the
_preferredSize_ as it is now.  This is only a safeguard to make sure
we don't display dialogs larger than the screen.  Each dialog must
still be properly designed to take the limited screen size into
consideration.

verified in [nb_dev](20020524)

Comment 10 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 16:31:50 UTC

Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
