This is caused by the QTimer in DefaultGUI:
QTimer::singleShot(0, this, SLOT(resizeMe()));
The timer causes the resize event to be handled after the module is loaded and all the UI-functions in createGUI
and customizeGUI
are executed. This is problematic when used in conjunction with the doLoad
function in DefaultGUI
. The function minimizes the module in the display, and at the end, when the single-shot timer's resize call is executed, the module gets resized while still minimized. This produces the anomalous behavior.
I can think of a few options going forward:
doLoad
function that puts off the minimize event until after the resize event from the single-shot timer in the module constructor is executed. I'll prioritize the first option. The second will work, but its more of a work-around than a solution. We don't need lots of timer events going off whenever a workspace is loaded.
(this only affects branch qt5; minimzing isn't enabled on master)
When loading modules that are minimized, they are not displayed correctly on the bottom of the screen. The horizontal width is equal to the width on the module had it been displayed normally.
The display error can be worked around by restoring and then reminimizing each module, from left to right. Doing that in another order will cause the UI to get screwed up. (The other modules will end up displayed in weird places.)
