We want drawview to work too, because we plan to use it more and
more. It would be really helpful if you entered your test case and
comments into Jira, so they can be tracked. Thanks!

Here is a fix to the workaround (when drawing does not touch both axes
and there is no subview), insert these lines instead of the arc,
fillStyle, and fill calls:
redlight.moveTo(0, 0);
redlight.lineTo(0, 0);
redlight.moveTo(0, r);
redlight.lineTo(r, r);
redlight.stroke();
Without the (0, 0) operations the height is just 1 as can be easily
seen.
Sorry for all the emails about this, but drawview is very powerful and
would be great to get working consistently with view. It is, of
course, very complex to maintain the width and height "manually".
(Another example of drawview's power: it automatically detects context
menu mouse downs on only the painted parts! though, I haven't tested
this recently.)

There was no response several months ago and now I'm just getting
back
to this part of my code and noticed different behavior in 4.2b2 and
stumbled across a "workaround".
The different behavior is that the drawview no longer resizes at all,
neither expanding nor shrinking, whereas before it would expand.
The workaround is to set the width and height to null before drawing.
Insert these lines before "redlight.clear();":
redlight.setAttribute('width', null);
redlight.setAttribute('height', null);
The drawview will both expand and shrink.
There is a problem with this workaround, however, when drawing does
not touch all the edges of the view, e.g. a 1 pixel line from (0,20)
to (20,20) results in a width of 20 and height 1 (should be 20). This
is "fixed", oddly enough, by including a subview to the drawview.

drawview seems to resize larger but not smaller. Is this by design?
There is a bug reported fixed, but its test case only does a one
shot draw.
http://www.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-4836
Here is a test case for changing drawing size based on the one in
the
bug report:
<canvas debug="true">
<view name="trafficlight_container"
bgcolor="yellow" >
<attribute name="rad" type="number" value="50"/>
<handler name="oninit">
drawCircle();
</handler>
<method name="drawCircle" args="dv">
redlight.clear();
redlight.beginPath();
var r = this.rad;
redlight.arc(r,r,r,0,360);
redlight.fillStyle = red;
redlight.fill();
</method>
<simplelayout axis="y" spacing="0"/>
<text>This should be *above* the redlight</text>
<drawview name="redlight" />
<text>This should be *below* the redlight</text>
<button text="shrink"
onclick="parent.rad = parent.rad / 2;
parent.drawCircle();"/>
<button text="expand"
onclick="parent.rad += parent.rad; parent.drawCircle();"/>
</view>
</canvas>
Running:
proxied, compiled for swf 8
lps 4.2 beta 1, linux centos 5.2
foxfire 2.0 linux & 3.0 windows, swf 9
Thanks.
