hello,
is it possible to use BorderLayout's sliding panel functionality outside of BorderLayout ? i mean both the collapse (by clicking on arrow button) and float (by clicking on collapsed part) functionality
i tried to add a ContentPanel to GWT's DockPanel (similar to BorderLayout) but i couldnt make it visible. i also tried Window (subclass of ContentPanel) it appeared but in wrong place and gone weird when mouse is hovered over it.
so is it possible to use such components standalone or in GWT panels ?
btw, one of my motivations trying such a mixed approach is: (as opposed to GWT's DockPanel) it seems as we have to give precise sizes of BorderLayout's regions. so depending on content there may either be empty space or clipped portions. is there a workaround for that ?
thanks in advance,
