Hi

I've been using Glamour to create a browser for a project that I am working on.
I have encountered a weird rendering issue when using
GLMCompositePresentation>>accordionArrangement.

The GLMPresentations that I want to display get cut off at the bottom of the
window. The image below shows the problem.

GLMTextPresentation is cut off at the bottom of the window

GLMTextPresentation is cut off at the bottom of the window

I have two GLMTextPresentations being displayed in the "Projecting" pane. One of
them is called "Context Checking" and the other is "Definition". "Context
Checking" and "Definition" are displayed using
GLMCompositePresentation>>accordionArrangement. When I try to expand both of
them, the one at the bottom runs off the screen and it gets cut off. I would
have expected the renderer to space both GLMTextPresentations evenly in the
available vertical space and add scroll bars to them when both are expanded.

I am not sure which part of the code is causing the problem. I am not intimately
familiar with how Glamour does its layout so any pointers to the cause or
solution to the problem would be appreciated.

A temporary fix that might work would be to set a minimal size for the window. I
noticed that if the window is big enough i.e. half the screen then the text does
not get cut off. How can I specify a minimal size for a GLMBrowser window?

Thanks!

Hi,

This looks like a problem of the expander morph.

If you want to control the size of the window, you can simply set it on the result of "morphWindow := browser openOn: ...".

Cheers,
Doru
