#61 Maximize does not really ensure a maximized size

Hi Angelo,

maybe this is no bug in the sense that you are interpreting your "maximize" button of a docked ToolWindow, but when maximizing a ToolWindow like that, it does not grow with the main window but only shrinks as the main window shrinks, too.

It would be nice if a maximized Dockable stays maximized no matter what size the main window is set to.

Regards,
Kai

    Hi Kai,
    first of all sorry for the tardiness of this reply. Anyway your point is right. I have updates the code to resolve the problem.
    Many thanks for your feedback.

    Hi Angelo,

    thanks for your reply. Sadly, right now I am not seeing any changes that fix this problem.
    After updating my working copy and starting MyDoggySet and maximizing a ToolWindow, that ToolWindow's size does not increase while enlarging the main window's size. While that happens for docked ToolWindows, sliding ToolWindows now disappear when resizing the main window.
    If that sliding ToolWindow happens to be in maximized state, it is being resized to the size it had before maximizing, when resizing the main window the first time. When again resizing the main window a second time, that sliding ToolWindow completely disappears as though it would have been forced to by "setVisible(false)".

    Another thing I noticed is that the "Pin"-Button on the ToolWindow's title bar disappears when putting a ToolWindow in sliding mode (which I expected to happen), but when putting the very same ToolWindow in docked mode again, that pin-button still is not available (which it was before).

    Regards,
    Kai

    I'm so sorry!, the bug for docked (not sliding) maximized ToolWindows is indeed solved, thanks for that!

    But the one for sliding ToolWindows still applies.

    Regards,
    Kai

    Hi Kai,
    please try now! It should work now.
    I really apologize for the tardiness of these my answers, but I'm really busy.
