Description Ken Frank 2003-05-23 21:24:27 UTC
Using pseudo localized product, with each message
or label
having additional multibyte text, and using
-fontsize 16 
option, running in Chinese locale,
not all of a tooltip appears, see attachment.
     From [Runtime] tab in [Explorer] window,
        Expand [Server Registry] - [Intalled
Servers] - [Tomcat]
         - [Internal Tomcat(406)] -
[localhost:8081],
        From  [Attributes] tab in [Property]
window,
then put mouse over debug line and view tooltip.
Chinese localization will use a larger font than
default
one now used so these issues will be more visible
to them,
but this can also be viewed as a general or a11y
issue
since may be visible to users in english locale
who use 
larger fonts.

Assumption is that user should be able to see
all items in a given window when it appears and
should
not need to resize it to see those things.

That is, the UI area or window should dynamically
resize 
itself to show the needed contents.
(this does not apply to contents of textfields,
areas 
controlled by scrollbars or vertical resizing
controls 
like in options window)

To emulate in non multibyte locale without
multibyte
in messages or longer messages, you may need to
run
with fontsize 18 or 20 to see what we are seeing
with
fontsize 16. Even with larger sizes, it may not be
seen 
exactly the same due to the effect of multibyte
and longer
strings.

This issue is marked with the FONTSIZE keywork;
bugs so 
marked will not appear on quality dashboards and
will not 
need to be waived or fixed for English FCS
products of this 
release.

For Netbeans issues, this will be marked as
blocking 33246.

Comment 2 Milan Kuchtiak 2003-05-26 12:29:45 UTC
Shorter tool-tip-texts should be used for the " attribute.
Comment 3 Milan Kuchtiak 2003-06-03 10:04:13 UTC
Fixed in trunk.

Comment 4 Ann Sunhachawee 2003-06-03 17:45:54 UTC
Shortening tooltips is not the best answer to this bug. Why doesn't
the tooltip area size correctly for the font?
Comment 5 Milan Kuchtiak 2003-06-04 08:12:14 UTC
Dusan, is it possible to solve this kind of bugs by allowing tooltip
texts to enlarge to more than one line ?
Comment 6 Ann Sunhachawee 2003-06-11 17:01:00 UTC
talked with Milan - since the text box cannot be dynamically resized
or the tooltip put on multiple lines, I agree with the fix of
shortening the tooltip text as proposed. 
Comment 7 Milan Kuchtiak 2003-06-12 08:49:19 UTC
There is no way how to split the tool-tip-text into 2 lines.
The html tagging don't help.
Comment 8 psuk 2003-06-12 08:51:43 UTC
Changing the Target Milestone to 4.0 as the bug was fixed in trunk
already.
Milane change it to S1S 5 ML, once you integrate it to release35.
Comment 9 Milan Kuchtiak 2003-06-12 15:07:29 UTC
Fixed also in Nb3.5
Comment 10 hiroshiy 2003-06-19 10:33:27 UTC
I've verified the fixing in followings.

  - S1S Nevada Build (Build 030617).
  - Solaris 9 Chinese, Win2000 Chinese
  - fontsize: 16

Thank you for your fixing.
