group not visible after maximize window

Post by harald.schlager » Fri Oct 07, 2011 7:33 am

hi !

I make one goup of buttons on the top of a window. if I push the maximize button of the window (stack) the group disappears and if I resize the stack
the group also away.

In the application browser I see the group and the group is also visible and I can change the properties.

How did I get the group back to "visible"

Version 4.6.4 and 5 on windows.

thank you in advance,
harald

Harald,
I just made a new stack, placed three buttons on it, made it a group. When I maximized the stack the buttons did not go away.

Does this happen if you make a new stack just to test this, with default buttons?

no it does not happen with a new stack

I have 2 Cards and one group with background behaviour on top and one on bottom.

The last thing I did was that I tried to "force" a resize of the group analog the stack via the geometry manager.

Hi Harald,

we need to take a look at the involved scripts (resizestack?), otherwise we can only guess.

Did you check taht the groups location is still inside of the stack dimensions after it has disappeared?
Inspector -> Size and position
