Problem with Window scrollTO

[jatoma]

Hi,
I have a problem with method scrollTo.
example:

Window  window = new Window();
  window.setWidth(500);
  Label label = new Label("hello");
  label.setBackgroundColor("red");
  label.setWidth(1200);  
  window.addItem(label);
RootPanel.get("main").add(window);

I would like to have a scrolled window to see the end (or middle) of label.
I tried following but it does not work:
window.scrollToRight();
window.scrollTo(1000,0);
and
label.scrollToRight();

I didn't find the answer in all posts concerned with scrolling in forum.
Can anybody help ?

hi,

maybe with

setOverlow(Overflow.AUTO);

on a layout

[jatoma]

I have set

 window.setOverflow(Overflow.AUTO);

but it still does not work. I also tried with others overflows values
on a window and Hlayout component
but all this options does not work. Solution for this problem is very important for me. Does anybody help ?

I am writing my master's thesis and I really need solution for above problem.

Here try this:

public class MyWindow extends Window {
  public native void myScrollTo(int x, int y) /*-{
    var self = this.@com.smartgwt.client.widgets.BaseWidget::getOrCreateJsObj()();
    self.body.scrollTo(x, y);
  }-*/;
};

public void onModuleLoad() {
	final MyWindow window = new MyWindow();
	window.setOverflow(Overflow.VISIBLE);
	window.setWidth(500);
	final Label label = new Label("hello");
	label.setBackgroundColor("red");
	label.setWidth(1200);
	window.addItem(label);
	window.draw();

	IButton b = new IButton("Scroll");
	b.addClickHandler(new ClickHandler() {
		@Override
		public void onClick(ClickEvent event) {
			window.myScrollTo(1000, 10);
		}
	});

	b.draw();
}

Move the window, since it will be on top of the button, but then click the button and the window should scroll.

Curious: What is your master's thesis on to require this?

I am creating Project Management Tool. Main functionalities are :

- Remote presentation (used: GwtEventService, status:done )
- BugTracker (partially done)
- Gantt chart for this I need scrollable window to show all tasks for particulary (day,week,month) (I am working on this now)
-IDE(netbeans,eclipse) simply plugin which can connect to service and set progress of task.(done)

Used technologies

GUI: SmartGWT in 95%.
EJB 3.1
Communication: GWT-RPC

I am determinated becouse I don't have much time(heh as usualy in IT projects everything is on yesterday :))
