Hi,
I faced the same problem and I solved it by creating the following
utility class:
import com.google.gwt.dom.client.Style.Unit;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.DockLayoutPanel;
import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.Widget;
public class DockLayoutPanelUtils extends DockLayoutPanel {
private DockLayoutPanelUtils() {
super(Unit.PX);
}
public static double getWidgetSize(Widget widget) {
return ((LayoutData) widget.getLayoutData()).size;
}
public static void setWidgetSize(Widget widget, double size) {
((LayoutData) widget.getLayoutData()).size = size;
}
}
Because it extends the DockLayoutPanel it has access to the protected
LayoutData object. With that object you can change the size (width or
height depending on the widget) of the widget. So you need to provide
the widget that was set with the addNorth, addSouth, addWest or
addEast method or the widget that you defined in the uibinding xml
file between the north, south, west or east element.
Don't forget to execute the forceLayout() method on the
DockLayoutPanel after changing the size of a widget.
Regards,
Maurice
