Panel Width

HaroldJohnson — Tue, 19 Feb 2013 17:23:18 GMT

I have placed a widget panel on the right hand side of my application window to hold the layerlist widget but i want to make it wider. I have tried putting in width="300" in the widget container tag but the width does not change:

<widgetcontainer paneltype="right" initialstate="collapsed" width="300">

Am I missing something.

Thanks

Harold

Harold,

I had the same problem of not being able to get the width to change, so I looked through the source code and it appears the container is expecting an attribute of size not height or width. Try:

<widgetcontainer paneltype="right" initialstate="collapsed" size="300">

This does not seem to be in the documentation.

Regards

Anthony

Thanks Anthony that worked. It seems funny that the settings for the panel do not conform to how you set the height and width of a standard widget. Even the example on the attribute table widget in the reference shows height:
