Expanding a Control in a vertical stack panel?

Shadowblitz16 commented 6 months ago

I didn't know where to make this issue. A discussions tab would probably be good

Anyways Dock=Fill is not working in vertical stack panel

Currently Control.Dock works only in LayoutPanel. I am working on a new layout mechanism (in which Control.Dock will be supported in all containers) and will post here an update when it is ready. For now, If you want to stretch child control of a VerticalStackPanel, assign it's VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Stretch.

generalloki commented 6 months ago

I see you are using Grid control. In order to setup it properly, children of the grid must have ColumnIndex, RowIndex. And Grid itself must be initialized with RowCount and ColumnCount, or with Row and Column collections. See our samples with Grid control.

Shadowblitz16 commented 6 months ago

ok thankyou

Shadowblitz16 commented 6 months ago

Stretch is already the default.

And it's not working.

Any ideas?

I beleive in 0.9.505 there is AllowStretch property in StackPanel. Set it True to have Control with VerticalAlignment="Stretch" stretched vertically. But in the new (not yet released) builds we removed this property and added VerticalAlignment.Fill which will do the job. I will post here a note when new build with improved layout mechanism is available.

Shadowblitz16 commented 6 months ago

@generalloki is the kubuntu one you made for me the new release or the old one?

generalloki commented 6 months ago

@Shadowblitz16

You can use this project Install.Scripts\MinMasterTemplate\ as a template for projects which use latest Master version of the Alternet.UI. There is a readme.md with the instructions.

Also I have added there a sample of expanding a control to fill it's container. See logListBox control...

I beleive we could close this issue

Shadowblitz16 commented 6 months ago

@generalloki I copied the bin and obj files from Install.Scripts\MinMasterTemplate\ to my project And I get a error when trying to use VerticalAllignment="Fill"

I also tried AllowStretch="true" on the VerticalStackPanel and nothing changed.

generalloki commented 6 months ago

You don't need to copy Bin and Obj from MinMaster

Get latest Master from github
Copy Install.Scripts\MinMasterTemplate\ to an empty folder where your project will be contained.

From readme.md of MinMaster:

STEP 1. Edit MinMaster.csproj file in the Notepad and change "AlternetUIPath" property to the path where Alternet.UI folder is located.
STEP 2. Run build.bat (or build.sh).
STEP 4. Open MinMaster.csproj is Visual Studio and enjoy.

In MinMaster sample main form shows Fill aligned ListBox control

Shadowblitz16 commented 6 months ago

ok thankyou

Shadowblitz16 commented 6 months ago

@generalloki is there a way you can build this under nuget as a preview?

It would be much easier for me to update the nuget package rather then building the MinMasterTemplate project. Then you can use non prerelease for stable versions.
