Design Page Size Trouble

[SoulDad57]

I have been using GWTDesigner for a while and I have been working around an irritating problem. The problem has to do with the designer page size. It seems to be more or less random when I open a widget in the designer. I can temporarily resolve the problem by opening the preview window and resizing it to the size that I desire. After closing the preview window, the design page size changes to match that of the preview window. Everything is okay until I have to open the widget design window again.

I am running the latest version of GWT Designer with GWT 1.7.1 within Eclipse 3.5 on Mac OS X 10.6.1. Though this problem has be consistent for quite a while in various configurations (all OS X).

Ciao,

Rick

I'm sorry, but I don't quite understand what problem you are describing from your description.

Does this only occur with OSX?

Does this occur using the every latest build?

Eric,

1) I have only tested with OS X.

2) The problem has always existed for me, I started using GWT Designer in May 2007. I am currently using the latest-and-greatest of everything.

Here are some screenshots of the problem:

Initial small edit pane, open preview window which is also small.

We have not been able to reproduce this under OSX. Can you send us a test case?
