Description Jiri Skrivanek 2003-09-18 13:31:19 UTC 
For automated UI tests it is necesary to be able
to get position of control/arrow buttons in
editor's tab control. For left corner arrow button
method ScrollableTabsUI.arrowButtonRect called by
reflection returns corect rectangle (see attached
code sample).
But for right corner control buttons method
ScrollableTabsUI.controlButtonRect() returns wrong
coordinates, event out of container border. How
should I use it then?

Maybe it would be better if there exist some
public methods which return coordinates of control
buttons.

merge in the list ;-)
Comment 4 Jiri Skrivanek 2003-11-07 13:14:20 UTC 
Probably not enough time to fix it before merge. Please, look at it
some day before FCS.
Comment 5 David Simonek 2003-11-24 16:59:56 UTC 
Impolemented in main trunk.
core/windows/src/org/netbeans/core/windows/view/ui/tabcontrol/ScrollableTabsUI.java
new revision: 1.6; previous revision: 1.5

Note that left arrow rect still can return a bit misleading bounds,
I recommend to compute and use center of the rectangle for testing
purposes.
