Description Ed Burnette CLA 2005-02-16 23:36:51 EST 
If you resize the application it doesn't redraw the left view correctly. It's
hard to describe so I'll attach a couple of screenshots of what I'm seeing.

are you using the refurbished template?  It resizes beautifully.
Comment 4 Ed Burnette CLA 2005-02-17 08:56:22 EST 
Yes, created fresh with I20050215-2300.
I first noticed it failing in the I20050209 build, was going to report it, then
the next few times I tried it it worked, but then it stopped working again even
with the new version so I reported it. I saw the problem whether I ran it from
an installed image (see 
http://www.eclipsepowered.org/archives/2005/02/16/rcp-installer/), invoked it
from the Product Configuration editor, or invoked it from the Plug-in Manifest
editor.

Try maximizing the outer shell, sometimes that causes the resize problems to
start. I mean, click on Window's maximize button in the shell trim. I can also
make it happen by doing a resize very quickly, like grab the side of the window
and throw it across the screen while I release the mouse.

It seems to be a problem with standalone views that don't have title bars. In
rcpMail.rcp.Perspective.java it says:

layout.addStandaloneView(NavigationView.ID,  false, IPageLayout.LEFT, 0.25f,
editorArea);

If I change that false to a true then I don't see the resize problem.
Maybe an SWT bug in CTabFolder? It's like it's behind an event or two on resizes.

Looks like it might be due to how the presentations handles resizing.  A
different StackPresentation is used for standalone views.

In any case, it's certainly not a problem in how the Mail template itself is coded.

Stefan, can you please investigate?

Need to address for 3.1.

Comment 12 Stefan Xenos CLA 2005-05-16 14:02:17 EDT 
EmptyTabFolder.layout wasn't doing anything. Fixed in head. Also added a new
perspective to the tests plugin that can reproduce the bug.
