Hi again,
is there no idea on this topic? Does the update work for you as it
should?
I started to debugging it a bit by adding debug output to the
moveEvent()/resizeEvent() functions. I seems that the resizeEvents
(resp. moveEvents) come out of order. The following comes when one
resizes the window width:
figure resize to PyQt4.QtCore.QSize(803, 474) <-- first event
figure resize to PyQt4.QtCore.QSize(879, 474) <-- second event
scroll resize to PyQt4.QtCore.QSize(879, 15) <-- second event (wrong!!)
scroll resize to PyQt4.QtCore.QSize(803, 15) <-- first event
My interpretation of this is:
- the FigureCanvas gets the first resize event and repaints itself (*)
- during the repaint it gets the second resize event
- since it is already in the repaint process, the second request
is ignored (or queued) and returns immediately
- this leads to the processing of the second resize for the scrollbar
- after the first repaint (*) is finished, the first resize of the
scrollbar is started
Who should be blamed for that? Is it
- Qt since they dont distribute the events in the order of occurrence to
the layout childs?
- or FigureCanvas since it returns from the secons call while the first
one is not finished yet?
How can I workaround this?
Best regards,
Ole
