AutoVersioning changes log window appears too small
« on: June 18, 2010, 10:37:02 pm »
Code::Blocks build 6271

When I invoke the AutoVersioning changes window: Project... Changes Log, the window that appears is very small.  I have to re-size it each time plus set the width of the list columns so they are visible.



Rather annoying. 

It may be related to occasional messup of the Code::blocks search dialog.  I don't yet know why but once in a while this dialog will open with very wide fields that require using the scroll bar to locate to the start of the search/replace fields.  As I cannot reproduce this one, can't post a report yet.

 Hi k1mgy,

I won't say that I fixed this but I have "improved" it in my patch 2, listed here:

I hope it helps you. :-)

Cryo.

Hi Cryogen,

Thank you very much!

Do you mean patch 12?

Will this go into the next nightly build?  As I have never done a patch build, perhaps better to get it in the nightly?

I would guess Patch 2 "AutoVersion Changes Log GUI sizing."

 Hi there,

Thank you very much!

You're welcome. No, patch 2 is right.

Will this go into the next nightly build?  As I have never done a patch build, perhaps better to get it in the nightly?

Probably not. I hope it will get there but the release cycle is quite slow as there's lots to get through. You do need to build from the SVN source, though, which requires some setting up and fiddling about. In the meantime you can try these:

In src\plugins\contrib\AutoVersioning\avChangesDlg.cpp, find

Code
    SetClientSize(wxSize(700,300));

at line 46. You can adjust the dialogue size here. The patch sets it to:

Code
    SetClientSize(wxSize(800,300));

After

Code
    SetSizer(BoxSizer1);

at line 74, insert this to set the minimum size:

Code
    BoxSizer1->SetMinSize(800, 200);

After

Code
    grdChanges->AutoSize();

at line 90, add:

Code
    grdChanges->SetColSize(0, 60);
    grdChanges->SetColSize(1, 645);

to set the column widths.

you can play with the numbers to adjust the sizes to suit.

Have fun,

  Cryo.
