Trouble with map not resizing within a Dojo ExpandoPane

SteveCole — Thu, 30 Aug 2012 14:03:47 GMT

I've pieced together a webpage template with a small header, a collapsible left panel (using the dojo ExpandoPane) and the rest of the screen is devoted to the map area. If the browser window's width is changed, the map will resize accordingly. If the ExpandoPane is minimized using the button, the map simply moves left and does not resize to fit the enlarged screen space.

It's probably something simple but I can't figure out where I've gone wrong. Anyone out there see my mistake?

Here's my stripped down page:

connect to the resize event of mapPanel instead?

Hi Rich,

I tried adding another dojo connect on the mapPanel but it did not solve the issue:

    dojo.connect(dijit.byId('mapPanel'), 'resize', function(map) {
     map.resize;
    });

No need to throw umpteen connects at it!

One will do:

//resize the map when the ExpandoPane resizes dojo.connect(dijit.byId("mapPanel"), "resize", function(changeSize, resultSize){     map.resize(); });

Hope that helps.

P.S. don't pass arguments to methods that have the same name as variables available within the same scope.

I made a few other changes where I could see potential issues...and some pedantic ones! May have missed some etc.

Run a diff tool to see what I changed 🙂

(forum messes up the indentation 😞 )

Awesome. Thanks, Rich!

Your suggestion finally makes it work. Marked as answered. Thanks again!

You're welcome 🙂

(it will also resize the map if the user adjusts the width of the panes by dragging too 🙂 )
