Frank, before we start working on this let's look at generalizing the query page.

QK, but I first finish my work for bug# 168204 ([patch] support bugzilla's usermatchmode for matching names to email addresses).

Steffen,

if you do not want the change for SearchPage please reopen this bug.

Comment 6 Steffen Pingel 2011-03-12 16:02:32 EST

Please revert the change to SectionComposite. We need to come up with a better strategy that only packs or resizes the dialog when it is necessary.

Comment 7 Steffen Pingel 2011-03-12 16:04:47 EST

Please also remove this chunk of code in the BugzillaSearchPage:

		Display.getDefault().asyncExec(new Runnable() {
			public void run() {
				scrolledComposite.reflow(true);
				scrolledComposite.getShell().pack(true);
			}
		});

I am not sure that pack is the right strategy at all since it can actually shrink the dialog which we should never do.

patch V1 is now reverted!

I use pack() because I found this in TaskUIPreferencePage.createAdvancedSection in expansionStateChanged

Thoughts for how to solve this without pack()?

small fix

Comment 12 Steffen Pingel 2011-04-13 18:15:39 EDT

This looks pretty good to me. Frank, could you take a look at Window.getConstrainedShellBounds()? My sense is that we should pass the new size through that method to make sure the window never exceeds monitor bounds.

Window.getConstrainedShellBounds() is protected and we need a way to access this from SectionComposite.

Thoughts?

Args, that's unfortunate. We may need to create a copy of that method in a utility class in the commons then.
