JideComboBox preferredSize not correct

JideComboBox preferredSize not correct (3.7.12) (Changing to JComboBox behaves correctly)

{code}

import com.jidesoft.swing.JideComboBox;

/**
* Very primitive test exapmple for preferredSize of a JideComboBox
* JFAST-6734
* @author olb 11/2021
*/
public class JideComboBoxtest {
public static void main(String[] args) {

// This text is not displayed completely
String [] items = {"Mein"};
JideComboBox cb = new JideComboBox(items)
{ // ... unless getPreferredSize() is slightly modified
public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
Dimension d = super.getPreferredSize();
return new Dimension(d.width+1, d.height);
}
}
;

JFrame frame = new JFrame();
JPanel panel = new JPanel(new FlowLayout());
panel.add(cb);
frame.add(panel);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
{code}

what about my prevoius post?

There is a miscalculation in the preferred size. We will fix it. Before it, you can use your workaround for now.

Ok, thanks for this shorttime answer,
but please keep in mind we are selling a Low Code platform which extremely depends on
customizable swing beans (components) and a lot of internal customizable features and
layouts depend on the size behaviour of each other.

Therefore this is important for us.

Just so you know, this bug is fixed in the latest 3.7.13 release.

Thank you for prompt reaction,

so i switched to 3.7.13 but unfortunatly nothing changed.

Again: This ist the very very simple example that produces a non complete text "Mein"
if i use JideComboBox.

Switching to JComboBox it shows a complete Text, fine.

Example 1:

public class JideComboBoxtest {
public static void main(String[] args) {

// This text is not displayed completely
String [] items = {"Mein"};
JideComboBox cb = new JideComboBox(items);
// JComboBox cb = new JComboBox(items);

JFrame frame = new JFrame();
JPanel panel = new JPanel(new FlowLayout());
panel.add(cb);
frame.add(panel);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}



Example 2: This is also very important : Only a little bit more complex.
JComboxBox renders fine, JideComboBox doesnt.


public class JideComboBoxtest {
public static void main(String[] args) {

// This text is not displayed completely
String [] items = {"Mein"};
JideComboBox cb = new JideComboBox(items);
// JComboBox cb = new JComboBox(items);

cb.setRenderer(new BorderListCellRenderer(20));

JFrame frame = new JFrame();
JPanel panel = new JPanel(new FlowLayout());
panel.add(cb);
frame.add(panel);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}

static class BorderListCellRenderer implements ListCellRenderer {
private Border insetBorder;
private DefaultListCellRenderer defaultRenderer;

public BorderListCellRenderer(int rightMargin) {
this.insetBorder = new EmptyBorder(0, 2, 0, rightMargin);
this.defaultRenderer = new DefaultListCellRenderer();
}

@Override
public Component getListCellRendererComponent(JList list, Object value,
int index, boolean isSelected, boolean cellHasFocus) {

JLabel renderer = (JLabel) defaultRenderer
.getListCellRendererComponent(list, value, index, isSelected, cellHasFocus);
renderer.setBorder(insetBorder);
JPanel p = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
p.add(BorderLayout.CENTER, new JLabel(value.toString()));
p.add(BorderLayout.EAST, new JLabel(NamedIcon.ARROW_DOWN.getImageIcon()));
return p;
}
}
}

Thanks. I need to do some further fix.
