[Fxruby-users] WorkAround :-)!

[Joseph <rub...@te...>]

Hi List.

I've found a work-around for my original problem. I was using the 
SEL_CONFIGURE event to be notified of modifications to the size of the 
window, so that I would be able to recalculate and reset the size of 
columns in an FXTable, based on the value of self.width (self here being 
the parent window, i.e. the main window). The default behavior of 
FXTable is to resize itself, but without resizing the columns. At the 
time the main window received the SEL_CONFIGURE notification, its width 
had not yet been set to the new size of the window.
I now discovered that if I hook into the FXTable SEL_CONFIGURE message 
instead of the main window's SEL_CONFIGURE, then, by the time the 
FXTable is notified, the self.width value of the parent window (i.e. the 
main window) has already been set to the new size. Perhaps somewhat 
coincidental, but it appears to work consistently.

One down, many more to go ....
