Description Antoine Toulmé CLA 2007-06-28 10:49:36 EDT
when using a large palette containing drawers, the size of the palette is not calculated correctly, so no scrollbar is showing. The user has to collapse compartments to access to other drawers.

Sure, you got even 3. Hope this helps.
Comment 6 Zac Wolfe CLA 2008-03-10 13:10:46 EDT
I'm also running into this problem and it's pretty severe.  The only way I can make all my palette entries accessible is by disabling the drawer collapse behavior altogether.  

Is this being fixed?
Comment 7 Antoine Toulmé CLA 2008-03-10 13:18:25 EDT
Hey Zac, what version of GEF are you using ? I cannot reproduce this bug anymore with the latest Europa maintenance releases.

I have had no word from the GEF developers that there has been work in that area though.

Marking as resolved in 3.4.2 due to Antoine's last comment. Please reopen if this reoccurs somewhere.

I am getting the same error.
If I am using direct PaletteGroup its working fine but as I am adding components inside PaletteDrawer, I am not able to get any Scroller

We should directly add PaletteDrawer inside the PaletteRoot, then it will work
