Description Ken Frank 2008-08-29 17:17:48 UTC
from what I understand, main ide windows as they appear on startup, don't need to show all of their
contents since users might resize windows in many different ways using the drag bars.

But it seems that if user makes some window larger, then all of the contents of the window should
show the messages and labels.

am using pseudo localized nb in ja locale at fontsize 14
but it happens in en locale, i used 16 point fontsize, thus this really isn't i18n only.

in this case its a bit more complex - if the mobility pallette is made to be wider, then the label of the items
don't show completely, however if its made to be smaller (thinner) then sometimes they do.

sometimes, when resizing it wider, different labels might be the ones that don't show all their
label, and at some different width, some other label might not show all of its label

see the attached gifs

seems that when pallette is thin, and it shows just one column of pallette items, it shows ok.
but when widened, it tries to show multiple columns, however each multiple column does not
show its label completely.

this isn't about projected length of some label of some component item, its that area for the
label should not be hardcoded, which am guessing is what is happening here.

I compared to pallette of matisse, html and bpel designer and this situation does not happen.

I think Palette API automatically handles this aspect. I'm forwarding this issue to Palette  module.
