Doru, i remember i was digging it some time before. But didn't found good solution to the above. The problem is that it is hard to figure out what happens in text morph.. its too complicated thingy. Then later, when i was implementing text rendering in Athens, i had to make own text morph class, because there are things which hard-wired. And now to the point about the problem: determining text dimensions is constraint-solving problem. I found the code there which actually takes initial bounds of morph and tries to lay out text within those bounds. Now if you want to make morph to stretch depending on text dimensions, you actually creating a dependency loop, because to lay out text you need bounds, but bounds are determined from text size.. So, i fear that without some refactoring of paragraph/display scanner /text morph, you simply cannot have a good solution. > Cheers, > Doru > > > > On Tue, Feb 28, 2012 at 10:09 AM, S Krish > <[email protected]> wrote: >> Sure.. that is fine.. for the use case you state >> >> Mine is quick n dirty hack to what I wanted: >> >> but my use case is I do wish to have more of these sources partially visible >> through the vertical pane. so I restrain it to max of 210.. and width of 600 >> to be able to to throw up another pane next to it.. for grouping methods I >> am interested in .. to view it more closely.. >> >> >> >> On Tue, Feb 28, 2012 at 1:33 PM, Tudor Girba <[email protected]> wrote: >>> >>> Hi, >>> >>> Thanks for the explanation. >>> >>> I took a look. calculateExtent is triggered when you create the TextMorph. >>> This is nice, but I am interested in getting the TextMorph to always expand >>> to fill the width of the surrounding element, and to expand vertically >>> according to the text :). >>> >>> Here is a variation of what I am thinking about with just a simple list of >>> morphs within a GeneralScrollPane: >>> https://gist.github.com/1930477 >>> >>> Cheers, >>> Doru >>> >>> >>> >>> On 28 Feb 2012, at 03:22, Krishsmalltalk wrote: >>> >>> > It does have the code to calculateTextExtent.
