Description Bruno Koeferli

2011-08-25 04:09:17 EDT

Build Identifier: 3.7.0

AbstractDateField's DateChooserDialog causes strange behavior when it overlaps a clickable Control (f.e. AbstractListBox). The problem is that the DateChooserDialog reacts to the TableCursor's SelectionEvent which is triggered by MouseDown. Then the dialog will be closed and the following MouseUp-event is triggered on the underlying control (f.e. on AbstractListBox leads to a un-/check of the current selected row).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build a form containing a DateField and below it a ListBox
2. Open the form and check a an element of the ListBox
3. Open the DateField's DateChooserDialog and select a date which overlaps the ListBox
4. The previously checked element gets unchecked

Patch to react to the MouseUp-event

This Patch causes the DateChooserDialog to react to the MouseUp-event.

But a little problem is still remaining when the user clicks and holds the mouse button and drags the mouse pointer to the underlying Control (f.e. AbstractListBox). This triggers the MouseUp-event on the Control and not on the DateChooserDialog.
The desired behavior should be the same as in the TimeChooserDialog.

Can you find a solution for that?
