wxSplitterWindow Preventing Unsplit

[vasimr22]

Hello,

I am attempting to create a 4-view splitter window for a 3D application, and am running into an issue with unsplit. The plan is to allow the user to drag the three sashes to resize the windows allowing them three of them to be simultaneously dragged to zero size without deleting them. Additionally, I need to add the ability to "foreground" a single panel (possibly by just setting the sash positions to 0.0 or 1.0 - depending on the window). I have been able to prevent unsplit by double clicking on the sash via setting a minimum panel size, however, when the sash is dragged to within minimum panel size, the application hangs. Any suggestions as to how I can accomplish what I am trying to do?

Thanks

That's all you need to do. As you can see in the 'splitter' sample, after setting a min pane size > 0, double-click unsplit is disabled and the splitter will no longer disappear when it reaches the minimum pane limit.
Whatever hang you're seeing must be because of your code. ..unless it's because of a bug that was fixed since the version you're using.
So the suggestion would be: try to reproduce it in the 'splitter' sample; if you can't, it's you code you need to check.

I use event capturing to prevent unsplit

Code: Select all

BEGIN_EVENT_TABLE(wxGISAddCommandDlg, wxDialog)
	EVT_SPLITTER_DCLICK(wxID_ANY, wxGISAddCommandDlg::OnDoubleClickSash)
END_EVENT_TABLE()

void wxGISAddCommandDlg::OnDoubleClickSash(wxSplitterEvent& event)
{
	event.Veto();
}

Thanks for the input. I think the issue was actually with the sizers being used with the splitter window (they were causing the hanging when the size goes to zero).
I ended up just using sashes instead (after looking back at the sample programs) which seem to work exactly as I wanted them to.
