BorderLayout methods collapse() and expand() are not working programatically

[pramod.gampa]

Hi Team,

I am using gwt version 2.4.0 and gxt version 2.2.5. I am facing a strange problem with BorderLayout.
Please go through the following scenario:
Assume, I have
BorderLayout obj= new BorderLayout();

Assuem i have set all regions with respective data. EAST region contains ContentPanel.

The following code is not working:
obj.collapse(LayoutRegion.EAST);

neither it is throwing any exception nor performing collapse event.

Please help me in this regards.

Regards,
Pramod

Hi Sven,

Thank you for your quick reply.
I have already gone through the link you have provided. But I didn't understand where I need to paste that code. Can you please tell me, where I have to paste the patch.

I find collapse working. See the class com.extjs.gxt.samples.client.examples.layouts.BorderLayoutExample in the GXT Examples. Added this line at the end of the method #onRender()

layout.collapse(LayoutRegion.SOUTH);

It was not working actually. Instead of collapsing, it is not displaying the panel at all! Looks like GXT bug.
