Avoid FillPane width negative
Dear all,
I wonder how to setup a TablePane, let's say, two columns with one's width is -1 and the other "1*", so that the second expand as container expand but I also want the second column to have a minimum width. so that when outer container is too small, I will end up with negative width of the second column.
Here is the actual cod in bxml:
<TablePane>
<columns>
<TablePane.Column width="-1" />
<TablePane.Column width="1*" />
</columns>
<TablePane.Row height="-1">
<BoxPane styles="{padding:4, horizontalAlignment:'center',
verticalAlignment:'center'}">
<PushButton bxml:id="uploadButton" buttonData="%UploadButton" enabled="false" />
<PushButton bxml:id="cancelButton" buttonData="%CancelButton" enabled="false" />
</BoxPane>
<FillPane styles="{padding:4}" minimumWidth="100">
<TextInput bxml:id="formulaTextInput" enabled="false" minimumWidth="100" />
</FillPane>
</TablePane.Row>
</TablePane>
Here I try to put minimumWidth in the FillPane and TextInput, but no use.
Regards,
Brendan

Hi Roger,
Thanks for the suggestion. It solves part of the problem. As under the main window, there is also a split pane which I don't know how to set the minimum size of width or height. I can only set the initial ratio of 0.33 in that case.
Any suggestion?
Brendan

Hi Brendan, That is a good thought �C let me look into that. But, I think you can still set the minimum width of your main application window to avoid the possibility of it going too small. We did this by doing the following: public void startup(Display display, Map<String, String> properties) {�� java.awt.Window hostWindow = display.getHostWindow(); hostWindow.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(1024, 768)); Let us know if this does NOT work and then we can look further at your suggestion to deal with the negative width differently.

Hi Brendan,
That is a good thought - let me look into that. But, I
think you can still set the minimum width of your main application
window to avoid the possibility of it going too small. We did this by
doing the following:
public void startup(Display display, Map<String, String>
properties) {
...
java.awt.Window hostWindow =
display.getHostWindow();
hostWindow.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(1024, 768));
Let us know if this does NOT work and then we can look
further at your suggestion to deal with the negative width differently.

Hi Roger,
In my case, the only set the outermost container is still not guarantee
the fill pane width is always positive.
I wonder if it is sensible to bypass layout if the width or height is
less than zero instead of throwing an error.
