The dialog itself is resizeable, so user has an option to change the size. Internal components change the size accordingly
if you are talking about the items in the 2 attached images, where not all the text or labels show at default - user should not need to resize; the dialog should resize itself to show all of its contents - dynamic resizing - thats why the issue was filed. user might run at larger fontsize and/or localized labels might be longer than in english, that can cause these problems I think using layout managers in certain ways solves these kind of problems Can you reconsider this and reopen ? ken.frank@sun.com
the guideline is that user should not need to resize - that is what the issue is about. am reopening this; if these windows are not present in current mobility or if problem is not present, please close it. ken.frank@sun.com
Ok Ken, What Layout Manager and which way will allow me to achieve it? And can you show me real dialog with real text (not this sample mumbojumbo) which doesn't fit?
The mentioned dialogs are gone in 6.0 We do not implement dynamic resizing of any component so if you require so - please fill a new RFE for OpenIDE. Static sizes of components need to be calculated correctly with real texts and real font sizes to do not affect nice look of the components.
