Adding additional regions to borderlayout overtakes existing region

[marc.fearby]

I've added a Viewport, and a container to be the center region, then a panel set to north. So far so good. If I drag another panel and drop it onto the viewport in the component tree and set it to south, both panels become south. If I click on the first panel I added (that I told to be north) I see that it has become south too, so if I change it to north, they both become north.

How do I add two panels to a viewport with one north and the other south? I'm using Ext Designer 1.2.0 on Windows 7 64-bit. I tried downloading the latest version yesterday and it gave me the 64-bit Linux version (instead of the Windows one). Not sure if this is fixed in the point release anyway.

Thanks

BTW, trying to specify tags to this forum post, and choosing a matched item, redirected me back to the forum list and I lost everything I typed. Bug in the forum also, perhaps?

The download page is offering up the correct binary today, and it has also solved the viewport problem :-)

Correction. I spoke too soon. Having added a west and an east panel, I've run into the same problem with 1.2.2 Build 48. I now can't get two panels, one east and one west. And since trying to add those, my south panel has disappeared from view (which has decided to moved to the east). The only way to fix it was to close the program and edit the .xds file in a text editor to set the regions manually.

marc -

I can't reproduce thsi, could you please give us exact steps?

Thanks,

I can't seem to reproduce the problem this morning. Perhaps it was the order in which I did it the last time, but since I can't reproduce it, no point worrying unless I can. Thanks.

Noticed it yesterday.
Using Version: 1.2.2 Build: 48 on Linux.

Here is what I noticed:
- If you add panels in sequence to border layout panel, it assigns each region as it goes just fine
- If you remove/add panels, at some point all panels start getting the same region name. If you change one (to center for example), they all change to that region
The only way I got around it was to save the project and use a text editor to fix the regions

discernica can you give like 5 or so exact steps and we'll fix the bug

[discernica]

Start a new ExtJS4 project
Add a viewport
Change the layout to "border"
Add a Panel - it gets Center automatically
Delete it (highlight in components and press Delete) you get the "Please add center" message
Add a Panel, it becomes Center
Add another, it also becomes Center
Change it to anything other than Center, eg North
The other also becomes North and so on forever (and you get the "Please add" message again)


Now all panels that are added get the same region, and if you change one, they all change
