Disappearing Palettes
Hi,
Maybe I don't get something about Palettes, but they behave strangely.
I open the main Window of class Window.
Then I open a number of Palettes in that Window.
Then I open one Dialog in the Window.
Now when the user closes that Dialog, all the Palettes disappear. When
the Dialog is opened again, the Palettes appear.
How to make them stay open whatever new window / frame / dialog gets open?
And another question - is there a simple way to make the palette title
text use a different, bigger font?
Thanks,
Piotr

Hi all,
just tried (after many time) to run the WindowTest test class from the
trunk, but got a cast exception ... to remove it I had to write the
following patch:

Please can you confirm that currently this happens even to others (I'm
running in a xp virtualized environment so could be an issue only for
me in this environment) ?
Tell me so I can apply the patch (if it's the case) ...
Bye,

Hi Piotr,
from what I can see on Palette:
A tool palette is an auxiliary window whose visibility is tied to its
owner's active state
so the behaviour you see should be right, at least if the owner you
close and reopen is that right :-) ...
Some more info: the related class is Palette under the package
org.apache.pivot.wtk, then there is the related skin class.
Under the Tests subproject you can find WindowTest, a runnable test
application using Palette, could help.
>How to make them stay open whatever new window / frame / dialog gets open?
Have you tried using as parent your main window ? I'm not sure this
can works (could be by design), Greg can say more on this ... but you
can try and tell us as a starting point.
>And another question - is there a simple way to make the palette title text use a different, bigger font?
I have to look inside, but could be a missing feature in its skin,
let's update on this.
Bye

Sounds like a bug to me.
If you can create a simplified test-case, and log it in JIRA, we can
probably track it down and fix it for you.

I understand it is tied to its owner's active state, and it is exactly
what I'm doing.
The parent of the palette *is* the main window - it is visible and active.
The window tree is like that:
main window
|
+--- palette 1
+--- palette 2
+--- some other frame
When I close the other frame, the palettes disappear. They are *not*
tied to the other frame.
Thanks,
Piotr
