4.1 Issue?

tazzmaxx

I just installed the 4.1 version and loaded a BSV that I created in 4.0 and the grids that have more than 1 attribute set to display are only showing one.

It looks like the first attribute in the reference object grid is fully expanded and I cannot see the other attributes to the far right in the grid. I'm bummed because it looks like I am going to have to go back and enter column widths for each attribute. (this will take a long time).

Am I doing something wrong? (I hope that I am).

Thanks

OK....

My bad. It is a Google Chrome issue (maybe something that Aware should look at since a large population is starting to use this browser).

The grids for reference objects look fine in IE 7.0

Aware, can you check and see why Google Chrome is not displaying the grids properly? I will check my settings in Chrome and see if changing anything helps.

Thanks

I am seeing this in Firefox as well. To articulate the problem further...

Drop a relation attribute on a form section. It seems not to matter what attributes you define for display. If you provide no width for the relation attribute, it seems the attributes within the list eat up miles of width and make for a useless display. You can resolve this by defining a width for the relation attribute that fits in the area where it resides.

If you do this in IE, the relation attribute list behaves very well, using up its available width and listing its internal attributes just fine. Chrome and Firefox are having trouble with this.

The work-around is to define your relation attribute widths about 50-75 pixels listt that the screen or Separator they are on.

I hope that it is a temporary work around and that Aware can do something to fix the problem. 🙁

I can't say for sure but it may have more to do with the browsers than with Aware.

True. According to the extjs site it is an issue with Safari and Chrome (which uses Safari). According to their forum, Chrome is not supported by extjs (yet) so my guess is that I will have to tell people to avoid using Chrome, Safari and Potentially Firefox (I read that there were issues with it as well) with Aware (sure limits the playing field).

are you using the collapse option? this normally happens when the collapse option is set to collapsed when loading

I tried it both ways and it does not work either way.

Aware IM is DEFINITELY compatible with Firefox and Safari and it is likely to be compatible with Chrome as well. There may be some isolated issues like this one - we'll fix those that we can.

Please don't make any conclusions by going through EXT JS forums - you may confuse yourself and others on this forum.

Aware IM does support Firefox and Safari officially. Our preliminary tests indicate that Chrome is equally well supported.

I apologize for the confusion that I may have caused on the Aware forum. I went back to the extjs.com site and read the forum posts again and a lot of what I was reading was personal opinion and conjecture. According to their official site, Ext JS is functional and supported on the following browsers (Internet Explorer 6+, FireFox 1.5+ (PC, Mac), Safari 3+ and Opera 9+ (PC, Mac)).

I will note that it is accurate that Google Chrome is NOT supported by Ext JS officially. It is also not listed in the Ext JS Road Map for the 3.0 release in early 2009. Hopefully the grid issue is something that is not major and can be easily fixed as I have not experienced any other major issues when using Chrome with Aware IM.
