FormPanel MultiFieldPanel GWT-EXT

[cyril.lakech]

Hi,

I used FormPanel and MultiFieldPanel from the API GWT-EXT with GWT Designer.

My problem is that everything works fine in runtime but in the designer, nothing appears properly, the designer editor keeps empty, just one empty panel in the middle of the screen.

I use these classes that i picked from the palette :
import com.gwtext.client.widgets.form.FormPanel;
import com.gwtext.client.widgets.form.MultiFieldPanel;
import com.gwtext.client.widgets.form.TextField;
import com.gwtext.client.widgets.layout.ColumnLayoutData;

Here is a part of my code:

Code: Select all

      formPanel = new FormPanel();
      formPanel.setTitle("TEST");
      formPanel.setLabelWidth(80);
      formPanel.setFrame(true);
      formPanel.setBorder(true);
      formPanel.setWidth(400);
      formPanel.setHeight(100);

      Button detail = new Button("Détails");
      appReference = new TextField("Référence:", "reference", 200);
      appReference.setReadOnly(true);
      appLibelle = new TextField("Libéllé:", "libelle", 300);
      appLibelle.setReadOnly(true);

      MultiFieldPanel namePanel = new MultiFieldPanel();
      namePanel.addToRow(appReference, 300);
      namePanel.addToRow(detail, new ColumnLayoutData(1));
      formPanel.add(namePanel);

      namePanel = new MultiFieldPanel();
      namePanel.addToRow(appLibelle, new ColumnLayoutData(1));
      formPanel.add(namePanel);

      initWidget(formPanel);


Thanks for your help,

GWT Designer supports most of the widgets from GWT-Ext, but none of the panels.

Support for the GWT-Ext panels will be added later.

In genereal, the GWt-Ext widgets can be used just fine with the standard GWT panels.

OK Thank you very much.

In a previous post, you wrote that GWT Designer support the GWT-EXT Widgets that we can see in the Palette of GWT Designer.

The FormPanel and the MultiFieldPanel are in the GWT Designer Palette, so i thought they were supported. But they are not widgets but Panel, that's why they don't work.

I'm going to i18n my modules by hand,i will use the same Constants class than GWT Designer, so when i will upgrade GWT Designer everything should be OK.

Ciao

They can be dropped into the design view, but you can't add any children to them.

Support for the GWT-Ext panels will be added later.

Is there some place I can sign up to be notified when this happens? The only management resistance I have to buying a few copies of GWT Designer is the GWT-EXT support.

It will be announced here on this forum.
