Solved [TC 8.01rc2 x64] Artifact in button

[petermad]

27.06.12 Added: Show inplace rename confirmation button also in current dir bar (32/64)

If the button is placed to the left (InplaceOkButton=2), the 64bit version shows two dots (like a colon) to the right of the button.

See: http://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/inplacerenamebut.png

Testet with both Aero and Luna theme under Windows 7 x64.

Why don't you like right position? It's more logical then left-aligned.

I think the distance from the name to the button is too big when it is right aligned.

Have full-hd monitor, use 8pt fonts and still dont think so...
But really, there's a bug.

I think it is a colon. And I don't think it's a platform specific issue. Lazarus just draws buttons, panels, ... a bit differently, that's why you see this specific symptom in TCx64 and not in TCx32.

Currently, when you start editing a path, on top of its panel, there is a textbox (or whatever) and now also the conformation button drawn. But the path panel (with the original path) is not completely hidden. You can see it and its original text in gaps - between the left border of panel and the textbox, between the textbox and the confirmation button and also between the confirmation button and the panel's right border (default layout).

You can prove it easily: open a directory with a path so long that it will fill up the path panel, double-click on the path panel to start editing it and then move the panel splitter to resize panels. Unlike the path panel, the editable textbox will not resize which will allow you to see the original path behind it.

I think it is a colon.

I am not sure that it is. The distance between the two dots is smaller than the distance in the colon in the path box next to it.

path panel to start editing it and then move the panel splitter to resize panels.

Really weird things happen here when I expand the panel during editing of the path - the left side of the edit box and the newly expanded part have different background color.

Also with a clean ini file, where the button is right aligned, the button remains static when the file panel is expanded.

A font used in the path panel is bold while a font used in the editbox is not.

The newly expanded part is not the editbox, it's the underlying path panel. When you resized a file panel, the path panel resized too, but the editbox drawn over it wasn't resized and so the confirmation button next to the edit box wasn't moved either.

Not here, I have bold font in both cases.

Actually what you see is the path which shines through.

Fixed in TC 8.01RC3 x64

Thanks, the OK button works much more reliably now (TC 8.01 rc3).

Yes, I moved the button outside of the path field, and reduced the size of that field.
