TabBar spinner Widget #5

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
This is a dependant on Issue#4 being completed.

Ash recently posted on the rocket-gwt forum describing the desired widget.

/// ash's post - start ///
oh i forgot. when i was going to port the swt ctabpanel to gwt there
was a feature that i really wanted to preserve. the java2script kit
supports too.

the best way i can describe it is as a "tab spinner" beside the last
displayed entry in the tab bar.

suppose that there are 50 tabs in a tab panel. i believe:
* the tab bar should _not_ render all 50 tabs and consume an unnessary
amount of client area
* the tab bar should render as many tabs within the client allocated
space. however, all other tabs can become accessible if scrolled via
the tab spinner.

i hope that made some sence man.

This can be easily achieved using the new ability to add widgets to a tab. A
LoadingSpiner support that automatically hides/shows itself when an rpc starts 
and
ends is coming shortly.
