Thanks Ian,
To test the effect of using an absolute size I replaced this line:
basePanel.setSize("100%", "100%");
with this:
basePanel.setPixelSize(200, 200);
The new output in compiled mode still shows appPanel and bodyPanel
with the same dimensions.
root 1103 200
basePanel 200 200 <-- good, this is what I specified in my new
version.
logPanel 78 200 <-- good, I requested 30% of basePanel's width.
appPanel 122 200 <-- good, I requested 70% of basePanel's width.
bodyPanel 122 200 <--- ??? I expected 50% of appPanel's height.
