We have developed a customizable layout control that allows the user to drag and drop different widgets onto a LayoutControl and move them around using the built in customization window provided by the LayoutControl. This control has the ability to save and serialize the layout of all the widgets so when the user loads the control all of the layout is preserved and displayed properly. The issue that we discovered is one of the widgets contains a NavBar control that when center aligned horizontally squishes the content within the NavBarGroup.
I have attached a sample solution in order to illustrate the issue. The sample is a very simple illustration of this control. Note this did work in our previous version of the DevExpress toolkit (13.1.8).
The steps to see the issue are as follows.
- Select the two widgets on the right.
- Click the button to group them from the customization window.
- Select the widget with the NavBar control.
- Click the button to Center align the widget horizontially.
- Issue is visible - notice that the content does not take the entire space.
This is a critical issue for our customers and a solution needs to be supplied as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Nick
Hello John,
I'm afraid the issue is not clear to me. When I click the Center button for the widget with NavBarControl, it is shown in the center of the corresponding group, which is expected (see the attached screencast). It seems that I missed something important.
I've additionally tested the same project with v13.1 and the behavior was the same. Would you please describe what should happen when I click the Center button for this widget? Additionally, send us a screenshot or screencast of how this worked before in your project. This will help us find a more suitable solution. We are looking forward to your response.
Thanks,
Andrey
Andrey,
Thank you for your response. I have attached a screen shot of the behavior. Disregard step 3 and do not select the widget with the NavBar, just click the Center align. You will then see the issue.
Thanks,
Nick
Thank you for the clarification, Nick. I have successfully replicated the issue and forwarded this ticket to our developers for further research. Please stay tuned. We will contact you once we have any results.
Hi John,
We have just released a hotfix so I added it to this thread. Try it and let us know how it works.
Thanks,
Andrey
