Re: [flexcoders] Titlewindow resize problem

[ibo]

Alex,

It gets clipped but I know its expanding because I have used 
resize effect to observe it in slow mo. Its like the renderer is having problem 
drawing part of the window region. Tried using the latest SDK/Flash Plugin. 
same thing.

Screenshot of it looks like exactly :

Should be like this:

It turns out that the problem was more of PopupButton issue.
It behaves as expected if TitleWindow is not a child of popup.


On a somewhat related note, there is another serious prob with PopUpButton
when used with ViewStack. The value of popup attribute of PopUpButton
mysteriously gets set to null when you navigating thru the view stack.
I'm actually surprised the issue was "closed" in Adobe Bugbase bec
they cant replicate it.

I don’t have time to set this up
right now.  Did it clip or did you get scrollbars?  Should it clip or just
layout differently?

Subject: [flexcoders] Titlewindow
resize problem
 
Guys need help, I've spent a day trying to figure out whats the problem
with
with this app. Its about programmatically resizing a Titlewindow. 

When I'm assigning the TitleWindow a new value for width, a portion of the
window
seems to be clipped for no reason. Is this a bug? Is there a workaround for
this?
Or am I just doing it wrong? If you will check the demo, it works as expected
bec
I have set the viewStackDialogInde x to 2 (as initial value). But if you
close the dialog box
and press the popup window again, clicking on "medium" and
"large" item wont expand the 
window anymore.

The compiled app demo:
