Resize smaller

[harislukman]

hi guys,

i have problem with resizing the frame into smaller size.

i created a vertical panel with size (360, 300)

then i add the vertical panel into the DefaultGInternalFrame

frame.setContent(verticalPanel);

i noticed that after the vertical panel is rendered into the frame,
the frame minimal size is set according to the vertical panel size.

once the frame is loaded, i can't resize the frame into smaller size?
anybody have clue on that? your help will be greatly appreciated

thank you in advanced.

regards,

Haris

The problem is that the window uses a HTML table for its
implementation. A HTML table always sizes to the maximum size of its
content. So you can not force a HTML table to become smaller than its
content. So to solve this problem you must also resize the content of
the cell. To do this you can overwrite the setSize function of the
window like this:

public void setSize (int width, int height)
{
super.setSize (width, height);

// Check if the new size was really applied.
if (width != this.getWidth () || height != this.getHeight ())
{
// If not resize the content first ...
verticalPanel.setPixelSize (width - this.xOffset, height -
this.yOffset);
// ... then try again
super.setSize (width, height);
}
}

The offset values are the widths of the windows border. Also note that
sizing the verticalPanel might also not work, so check what it
contains.
