[codenameone-discussions] How to force width / height of a dialog

[howudodat1]

I override calcPreferredSize to force a dialog to be larger (for a large 
textarea).  However it still shows up as a small dialog packed to the 
minimum 

package com.howudodat.sdcpmobile.ui;


import com.codename1.ui.Button;
import com.codename1.ui.Dialog;
import com.codename1.ui.FontImage;
import com.codename1.ui.TextArea;
import com.codename1.ui.geom.Dimension;
import com.codename1.ui.layouts.BorderLayout;
import com.codename1.ui.plaf.UIManager;
import com.codename1.ui.spinner.Picker;
import com.codename1.ui.table.TableLayout;



public class DlgClientHistory extends Dialog {
 public boolean Cancelled = false;
 protected Button btnApply = new Button(FontImage.createMaterial(FontImage.
MATERIAL_DONE, UIManager.getInstance().getComponentStyle("Command"), 5));
 protected Button btnClose = new Button(FontImage.createMaterial(FontImage.
MATERIAL_CLEAR, UIManager.getInstance().getComponentStyle("Command"), 5));
 
 protected Picker cmbDate = new Picker();
 protected TextArea taNotes = new TextArea();
 protected TableLayout layout = new TableLayout(4,3);
 
 protected FrmClient parent = null;


 public DlgClientHistory(FrmClient frm) {
 parent = frm;
        initManualComponents();
    }
    
    protected void initManualComponents() {
//     taNotes.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(800, 150));
    
     this.setLayout(layout);
    this.setUIID("Form");
    this.setDialogUIID("Form");
        this.getStyle().setBgTransparency(255);
        this.getDialogStyle().setBgTransparency(255);


     Container cnt2 = new Container();
     cnt2.add(btnApply);
     cnt2.add(btnClose);
    btnApply.addActionListener(evt -> onApply());
     btnClose.addActionListener(evt -> onClose());
     add(layout.createConstraint().horizontalSpan(3).horizontalAlign(
Component.RIGHT), cnt2);
     add(layout.createConstraint().horizontalSpan(1).horizontalAlign(
Component.RIGHT), new Label("Date:"));
     add(layout.createConstraint().horizontalSpan(1), cmbDate);
     add(layout.createConstraint().horizontalSpan(1), new Label());
     add(layout.createConstraint().horizontalSpan(3), taNotes);
    }
    

 @Override
 protected Dimension calcPreferredSize() {
 // TODO Auto-generated method stub
 return new Dimension(800, 500);
 }
     


}
