Re: Basic MDI (Multiple Document Interface) question
I based my class on the ResizePanel found at
http://code.google.com/p/resizepanel/
. I initially extended the concept to include resizing from any edge/
corner, just like on Windows. However, that introduced too many
corner cases and required logic that greatly increased the complexity
of the resize computations. In order to allow the dialog box to be
resized on any computer without taxing it too much, I restricted it to
only being resized from the SE corner (bottom-right), same as
ResizePanel.
Here's some poorly pasted code below. I tried to create a general,
reusable library. However, there are certain things I do that are
specific to my project in the class. Still, the resize logic is
pretty simple.
The basic assumptions:
- When resizing, the caption and widget are set to minimum size. You
could resize them every time the mouse moves during resizing.
However, if the widget is complex, that will seriously slow down the
process. I found that it was just easier to set them to minimum size
(0px for widget, 32px for caption, in my case) and then reset their
size once the resizing is done. This looks ugly but is really fast on
all browsers I tested it on. Obviously, this could be made into a
flag but I haven't bothered to do that yet. Setting the caption
(especially if it is a custom one like mine) to a minimum size is
critical because, otherwise, it won't let you reduce the size of the
box.
- The logic computes the direction of the cursor. In this case,
direction really means location. If the cursor is in the South East
(SE), it initiates a resize computation. Otherwise, it lets the
dialog box do its default action.
- You have to override the setWidth(String) and setHeight(String)
functions to reduce the caption to its minimum size, otherwise, it'll
never shrink.
- Do not set width to 100% in the CSS for .dialogMiddleCenter (aka,
don't do what it says in the Javadocs for PopupPanel). Otherwise, the
widget will take up the full window width on certain browser and just
the minimum required on others. So much for standard CSS.
If you have any other questions, just let me know.

z.

Interesting. Can you share the resize part if by resize you mean via mouse? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: Basic MDI (Multiple Document Interface) question
Just an update in case anyone else is looking into this - I ended up extending the DialogBox class to add in resize support, a custom caption that includes close and maximize/resize buttons and handlers for some additional events (like double-clicking on the caption). Because DialogBox comes with built-in drag support, it was much easier. Also, I find it more lightweight than re-creating even a simple window manager in GWT. Thank you all, again, for your help.

Re: Basic MDI (Multiple Document Interface) question
I dont use a completely full windowing system as such, but my review website does use extensive popups to enter data while still looking at other information if you wish. It does this more or less exactly as you suggested, decorated popups containing composites. The only modifcations I did was to get the x in the corner so you can close the popups. http://www.rateoholic.co.uk/ You have to login to demo the windowing (ie, when you go to post or edit reviews, they are new windows). You can login via OpenID though. In addition I used a combination of iframes to switch between different main views of the app without any code needing to reload. Its all still very rough around the edges, but I think it shows the power of what GWT can do. On Dec 6, 6:40 pm, Zakaluka zakal...@gmail.com wrote: Thank you both for the suggestion.

Is it possible to do such a thing with plain GWT, i.e. without using any additional libraries like SmartGWT, Ext GWT, etc? I have searched in this forum, but the latest posts seem to be from 2009 (most are even older) and all the projects they reference are dead. I was thinking that DecoratedPopupPanel with a Composite of some sort inside it might do the trick, but I'd love to hear if someone already has such a system operational.
