code for doAfterShowPopup...

[padysrini]

if anybody is interested...

Since I wanted the popup location to locate itself wherever space is
available based on the location of my datepicker field, I added this
code ( just incase anybody is interested...this code can be used for
any popup...just make sure show() is called before
setPopupPosition... ).

public void doAfterShowPopup(PopupCalendar popup) {
Point pt = getPopupLocation(this, popup.getOffsetWidth(),
popup.getOffsetHeight());
popup.setPopupPosition(pt.x, pt.y);
}

public static class Point {
public int x;
public int y;
}

public static Point getPopupLocation(Widget w, int offsetWidth,
int offsetHeight) {
int left = w.getAbsoluteLeft();
int top = w.getAbsoluteTop() + w.getOffsetHeight();
int availableRightWidth = Window.getClientWidth() -
w.getAbsoluteLeft()
+ w.getOffsetWidth();
int availableBottomHeight = Window.getClientHeight() -
w.getAbsoluteTop()
+ w.getOffsetHeight();
boolean availRight = availableRightWidth > offsetWidth;
boolean availLeft = w.getAbsoluteLeft() > offsetWidth;
boolean availBot = availableBottomHeight > offsetHeight;
boolean availTop = w.getAbsoluteTop() > offsetHeight;
Point p = new Point();
if ( availRight & availBot ) {
p.x = left; p.y = top;
}
else if ( availRight & availTop ) {
p.x = left+w.getOffsetWidth(); p.y = top-offsetHeight;
}
else if ( availLeft & availBot ) {
p.x = left+w.getOffsetWidth()-offsetWidth; p.y = top;
}
else if ( availLeft & availTop ) {
p.x = left-offsetWidth; p.y = top-offsetHeight;
}
return p;
}


Thx
