custom widget splitter + layout problems

[yherve]

Hello dojo team,

pb reproduced on nightly build (12/02)

The attached example has a content pane and a custom widget inside (made of a border container and two content panes with a splitter).

on FF3: If the custom widget is created statically, it is fine. If the custom widget is dynamically there are several problems:

• the outside gutters are missing
• the splitter is not at the correct place

when you resize the browser, the splitter moves to the correct place, but the outside gutters are still missing.

on webkit:

• same problems, but the splitter is initially a couple of pixels below the expected position in the static scenario

on opera 9.6

• same problems as FF3, but the mouse pointer is not updated when you move over the splitter

I don't see how this could possibly work... widgetsInTemplate isn't setup to contain layout widgets. Specifically, in this case, BorderContainer.startup() will never be called. You might try to do that manually (from myWidget.startup() to see if that helps.

I'm going to close this ticket. widgetsInTemplate isn't meant to support layout widgets, so you will have to hack it to work in your case.
