Initial debugging tests show that when the accelerator text is changed after the initial create, the client-side idea of how wide the label is gets updated to accommodate the wider label, but there is never a call to XConfigureWindow to change the actual width (unless I missed something somewhere), so the server still thinks it's the old width.
XtSetValues calls (eventually) label's set_values XtSetValues calls _XtMakeGeometryRequest() which returns XtGeometyrAlmost with a new size XtSetValues calls set_values_almost which just copies the new suggested size to the goeReq structure XtSetValues then calls (*resize) which ends up in ResizeWrapper5 which ends up in label's resize method. This computes desired sizes but does nothing else. It occurred to me that if I used gadgets in my menus instead of widgets, the actual window resize would be unnecessary, and this does in fact "solve" my immediate problem for now, even though the behavior is still broken for widgets ----- Original Message ----- From: "Danny Backx" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Dave Williss" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "LessTif Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, August 24, 2004 2:05 PM Subject: Re: [Lesstif-discuss] XmLabels and accelerator text > I just modified test/Xm/rowcolumn/test17.c to show this problem, > so we can now reproduce it with a simple example. > > Danny > > On Mon, 2004-08-23 at 17:28, Dave Williss wrote: > > Here's a new problem... > > > > I have a menu with XmPushButtons on it > > After the menu has been created, something calls > > XtSetValues to set the XmNaccelerator and > > XmNaccleratorText. > > > > The menu pane (an XmRowColumn) gets resized > > to accommodate the new width of the label, but > > something causes it to clip the right edge off > > at the old width.
