AFWDialog not positioning correctly

Added by Aleksander Fular about 12 years ago

I was succesful in putting AuthWidget inside WDialog.
That was a bit of a problem until I came across your example auth2 (thanks for that one ) - However I found out that your solution seemed a bit like a workaround I followed it.

Anyway but to the question:
I am having following problem with WDialog now:
Whenever I open the Dialog for the first time It looks like this:

If i press alt or resize page in anyway it fixes itself

Its only happening for the first time I am opening the Dialog

is there anything I am missing? here is the code I am using for dialog creation
@
logonDialog_ = new Wt::WDialog();
Auth::AuthWidget* authWidget = new Auth::AuthWidget(dbSession_);
authWidget->getCloseRequestSignal().connect(logonDialog_,&Wt::WDialog::accept);
logonDialog_contents()>addWidget(authWidget);
logonDialog_->finished().connect(this, &Logon::dialogDone);
logonDialog_->show();

Hey,

That definitely looks like a bug. It's probably important to know exactly when you show the dialog (at start up, or when a user pressed a button?)
Can you isolate this misbehaviour in a small test case?

Hello,

I took code from features/auth1 example and slightly modified it.
Added function showDialog and moved there code which created authWidget. the function is called upon pressing a button
@
Wt::WPushButton *showDialogButton = new Wt::WPushButton("show dialog", root());
showDialogButton->clicked().connect(this,&AuthApplication::showDialog);
@
show dialog function:
@
void showDialog() {
Wt::WDialog *dialog = new Wt::WDialog();
Wt::Auth::AuthWidget *authWidget
= new Wt::Auth::AuthWidget(Session::auth(), session_.users(),
session_.login());
authWidget~~model()>addPasswordAuth(&Session::passwordAuth());
authWidgetmodel()>addOAuth(Session::oAuth());
authWidget->setRegistrationEnabled(true);
authWidget->processEnvironment();
dialogcontents()~~>addWidget(authWidget);
dialog->show();
}
@

I used standard resources.
Copy of code and resources directory are compressed in attachmenet.

In my current code I decided to hardcode values to which WDialog should resize.
@
logonDialog_->resize("675px", "333px");
@

I am developing on windows, and these are my arguments
@
---http-address=0.0.0.0 ---http-port=8181 ---deploy-path=/hello ---docroot=${workspace_loc:FuxWebPage}
@
So nothing out of ordinary here,

Hey,

I could now reproduce the issue, thanks. This is a problem only because the auth module (with standard CSS theme) loads in a new stylesheet (form.css), but loading a stylesheet cannot be done reliably asynchronously.

A workaround is to load it before showing the dialog, e.g. in the application constructor:

 useStyleSheet("resources/form.css");

Thanks for looking into that!

I will definitely use the workaround.
