where the bottom gets crushed due to incorrect height

thats probably related to wx sizers though? And haxeui doesnt use them

I'll try the git version again, think I had 3.2.1 or something for wxwidgets

worth a try, but i would steady my expectations 🙂

01/15/2023, 1:14 PM

eh I can try, if not I'll just set a height and keep the window resizable

also wanted to get the input comboboxes and text input lined up, but aligned to the right

icy-zebra-52882

like you would have on a web form

icy-zebra-52882

I tried

horizontalAlign="right"

for them but grid seems to ignore it, but I think it shouldn't affect that anyway

you'll have to share a layout or something... maybe a builder link

theres a bunch of relevant properties that can go in the `haxeui-hxwidgets.properties`:

Copy code

/*
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.fit=boolean will reszie the top level frame to the contents of the UI
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.title=string just the title of the frame, you dont have to set it here, but its an easy way.
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.width=number the default width of the main frame (800 if not set), note, this property is ignored if haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.fit=true
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.height=number the default height of the main frame (600 if not set), note, this property is ignored if haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.fit=true
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.minWidth=number the minimum width of the main frame (-1 if not set)
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.minHeight=number the minimum height of the main frame (-1 if not set)
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.maxWidth=number the maximum width of the main frame (-1 if not set)
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.maxHeight=number the maximum height of the main frame (-1 if not set)
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.left=number the position of frame (x axis) defaults to center screen
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.top=number the position of frame (y axis) defaults to center screen
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.maximized=boolean whether to start the frame is a maximized state
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.maximizable=boolean
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.minimizable=boolean
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.closeable=boolean
* haxe.ui.hxwidgets.frame.resizable=boolean

one thing ive just noticed from your link, is that a copy and paste from your app? Because the tabview there has a height of 100%... which isnt autosized... you are saying "100% of parent" which is, as mentioned, 0

bright-gpu-74537

01/15/2023, 1:22 PM

in my test app, if i also put the tabview height to 100% i get the same behaviour:

bright-gpu-74537

01/15/2023, 1:22 PM

but its totally sensible

icy-zebra-52882

01/15/2023, 1:23 PM

well that 100% value works, but only because I used your suggestion of minHeight and minWidth in the .properties

icy-zebra-52882

01/15/2023, 1:23 PM

so that's as good as fixed for me

bright-gpu-74537

01/15/2023, 1:24 PM

so are you saying that if you remove the height=100% from the tabview, and dont have a fixed height, it still doenst autosize?

bright-gpu-74537

01/15/2023, 1:24 PM

you'll also need to remove a bunch of 100% from the other parts too... like the box Tab #1

bright-gpu-74537

01/15/2023, 1:25 PM

that rules apply to that...

bright-gpu-74537

01/15/2023, 1:25 PM

eg, what does this look like for you:

Copy code

xml
<vbox style="padding: 10px;">
    <tabview width="300">
        <box text="Some Page">
            <vbox>
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
            </vbox>
        </box>
        <box text="Some Page2">
            <vbox>
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
                <button text="Some Button" />
            </vbox>
        </box>
        <box text="Some Page3">
        </box>
    </tabview>

seems as it should be

icy-zebra-52882

01/15/2023, 1:38 PM

seems like the easier solution was to just remove all 100%s everywhere and stick to autosize
