Hello,
I've started to develop my application on Windows and then opened it
again on Linux. This time I've used the ClassDesigner. On Linux Dabo
uses a bigger font, which is quite ok by itself, but I've problems to
adapt all my controls. Most of them I got to a reasonable size by
checking "sizer_expand" in the Object Info or by setting the proportion
to 1, then saving, running the application, reopening it in the
ClassDesigner and then setting expand and proportion properties back to
their former values.
But there is one button that doesn't respond to this treatment: it
stubbornly stays bigger than needed after setting proportion to 1 and
back to 0.
In this case I don't know if I can create a simple example showing the
behavior. I'd rather ask first: what's the normal and preferred method
to adapt control sizes to changing font size?
Another thing: one label should have a background color distinct from
the rest. Worked quite well on Windows ("Edit BackColor" in the Object
Info), but on Linux I can choose what color I want, the background stays
unchanged. Changing the text color works. And if I set a border for that
label, this border doesn't appear round the label text, but somewhere
farther down.
Last cosmetic question, this time the same problem on both OS: I've got
a grid sizer with four buttons in a horizontal row. The captions have
different length and so the buttons, and the grid sizer columns have
different width. How can I change that? Sizer_expand and sizer_colExpand
are checked, sizer_proportion is 1 for the buttons.
Thank you for hints,
Sibylle
