Form in a ScrollPane
Hello,
I'm building a Pivot 2.0 application with Scala.
I've encountered the following problem:
In my bxml file I have:
> Stack Pane
>> Image
>> ScrollPane
>>> Form
if I define the ScrollPane with no attributes the form is transparent,
the image is visible in the background (desired behavior), but the form
is not getting the scroll bars.
If I add a preferredHeight attribute to the ScrollPane The form is not
transparent (undesired behavior) but the scrollbars are active.
Am I doing something wrong? I'd like to have a transparent form with the
background image and the scroll bars when needed.
Any help is appreciated,
Bojan

Thanks Greg, that solved the binding.
Sorry for polluting an older thread which indeed has been solved.

Hi Bojan,
sorry for the delay ...
As Greg suggested, have you tried adding the inline attribute, and even the
id attribute (so you can refer to them via namespace) ?
Have you got a custom class for your main Window, that extends Window and
implements Bindable ?
Otherwise, I can suggest you to try to partition your bxml files like in the
"Kitchen Sink" (but it doesn't use data binding), so this could be the last
option.
I'm sorry but for these things I can't help so much at the moment ...
Greg, maybe a paragraph on this could be really useful in the "BXML Primer"
(even for me :-) ).
Bye,
Sandro

You can add inline="true" to the bxml:include tag. That will cause the includes to share the same namespace as the parent file.
However, this won't have any effect on the issue you were seeing (which I believe has already been resolved anyways).

Hi Sandro,
As you have suggested, I have tried to split the bxml file in a number
of smaller files.
But, I encountered a problem, so what I did is:
<bxml:include src="lc.bxml"/>
in the main file, and this is working, however my @BXML bindings (mostly
TextInputs) are not working anymore.
Any hints?
Thanks,
Bojan

Hi Bojan,
> Congratulations to the Pivot-team, and keep up with the good work.
thank you very much for this.
On the scrollbar problem I'm sorry but we have to see what say Greg ... in
the meantime I can suggest you to try to change the hierarchy of your
containers inside bxml (if possible), and maybe splitting them in more than
one (big) file.
I hope to update soon, and to have your problem solved too.
Bye,
Sandro

Hi Sandro,
Thanks for your good wishes.
I've seen the work you have done to initiate Scala (actually it's what I
used to start my development), thanks for that. I've also looked at the
presentation you did at JUG Torino (or Milano?). I am both a novice for
Scala (the better Java we have all been waiting for, and hoped we'll get
there from the Java beta days in '94-'95) and Pivot, both are very nice!!
I've been using the latest 2.0 trunk, I'd gladly post a sample, but to
cut-out from a 800-lines bxml file would take me to much time, and
deadlines are tough ;-)
Of course, I'll post any suggestions/problems in Scala, but for the
moment I'm focusing on the GUI, that is, the bxml file.
Congratulations to the Pivot-team, and keep up with the good work.
Best regards,
Bojan
P.S. FYI, I'm using Netbeans 7.0 beta, so importing the eclipse
projects, but no problems otherwise, and my OS is xubuntu 10.10.

Hi Bojan,
congratulations and good luck for your new Pivot application :-) .
On the scrollbars problem, are you using: an updated 2.0 from the trunk ?
Can you post here a minimal sample to test the wrong behavior ?
And last, just for curiosity, in your work on Pivot and Scala, are you
finding problems in interoperability or all is working good ?
Or if you have some suggestion, you are welcome.
All this because we are starting to write some extensions to Pivot for
Scala, for example to see if it will be possible to have transparent
conversion between Scala collections and Pivot collections, and others ...
but in next months. But if you have found other (Scala-related) things more
important to fix or to have before, tell us.
At the moment the related project is here:
http://code.google.com/p/pivot-scala/
but there is nothing inside ... contents will be put as soon as possible.
Thank you very much,
Sandro

Works like a charm. Many thanks.
If you could just tell me how to fill the width by the TableView in the
first row, that would be great.

What type of container is the parent of the second scroll pane? Looks like maybe it is a vertical box pane? Try using a TablePane with two rows: the first one should have a height of -1 (the default), and the second should have a height of 1*.

Re: Form in a ScrollPane
Posted by Bojan Vučinić <bo...@ma-cad.com>.
Hi Greg,
Thanks for your help.
The form transparency issue has been solved by setting
styles="{backgroundColor:null}" on the ScrollPane, as per your instructions.
However, the scroll bars issue is still present.
In one form which is closer to the top of the hierarchy (Window -
TablePane - TabPane - StackPane - ScrollPane - Form) the scroll bars
appear when needed (see scroll1.png).
But in another, where the form is a bit down the hierarchy (Window -
TablePane - TabPane - BoxPane - ScrollPane - BoxPane - Form the scroll
bars don't appear (see scroll2.png).
Any idea why this is happening?
Best regards,
Bojan

Hi Bojan,
Does the form actually exceed the size of the scroll pane? If not, then the scroll bars would not appear. If you want scroll bars to always appear, you can set the scroll bar policy to "always".
By default, scroll panes have a white background - you can set the background color to null to make it transparent.
Hope this helps,
Greg
