[qooxdoo-devel] TabView: Having problems with nested layouts

[Michael Shillinger]

All,

I am trying to create a property page type  interface using QxTabView.
Each tab will have it's own data entry widgets and there will be three 
buttons at the bottom (Save | Apply  |Cancel ).

The buttons are NOT on each tab, since they apply to all tabs.


I am using nested layouts to get what I want, but it seems the 
QxTabViewPage is causing some layout problems.

Roughly, here is what I am trying to do...

----------------------------------
| VerticalBoxLayout
|   -------------------------------
|   |  TabView
|   |    ----------------------------
|   |    | TabViewPage              
|   |    |   -------------------------
|   |    |   | VerticalBoxLayout
|   |    |   |  -------------------------
|   |   |    |   | GridLayout (Properties)        
|   |   |    |   | GridLayout (Properties)        
|   |    |   -------------------------
|   |    ---------------------------
|   ------------------------------
|   | GridLayout (Buttons)
|   ------------------------------
--------------------------------

(Examples are attached and can be run from demo/example directory)

When the layout renders, the Buttons grid is overlayed on the TabView 
not below it, as I would expect using a Vertical layout. (see 
TabView_bad.html)

If I don't use a Tab view (just use the grids in a VerticalLayout) it 
renders correctly (see TabView_good.html).

I also tried placing the TabViewPage directly in the Vertical layout  
and saw the same problem.

I just started playing with qooxdoo, so this definitely could be pilot 
error on my part.

Any ideas??

I tried this in FF 1.07, FF 1.5.0.2 and FF 1.5..0.3 (nightly), IE 6, and 
Opera 8.53 with the same result

Thanks
Mike Shillinger
