When a TRectangle has aspectFixed, #extent: will, of course, maintain
the rectangle's old aspect ratio rather than the one specified.
But the way that it does this is to dynamically choose whether to use
the width or height asked for (adjusting the other), based on
whichever one is bigger. This is cute, but it results in some odd
behavior for TWindow:
Suppose the rectFront is tall and narrow, and the contents are
short and wide. Repeated openings and closings make the window shrink
away to nothing.
I'm having good results by just always using the specified width, but
I certainly can't claim that this is the one-true Right Answer(TM).
What to do?
I feel that when in doubt, make the choice explicit:
#extentHoldingX:, #extentHoldingY:, and extentHoldingLarger:.
TWindow>>openContents/closeContents would use, say #extentHoldingX:.
Other issues?
