[dongryphon]

We are pleased to announce today the availability of Ext JS 4.1.1 RC1.

http://cdn.sencha.io/ext-4.1.1-rc1.zip

Of particular interest in this release are some significant fixes for community reported layout issues. We wanted to get these fixes out as early as possible to provide an opportunity for community feedback.

Hi Don,

Any chance that EXTJSIV-4350 will make it into production any time soon?

Alex.

This is still labeled as TDB, but I will let Don elaborate further.

Hi Scott,

Thanks for replying. That code may be a bit outdated for 4.1 but I think the idea is quite obvious.

In fact, while we're at it I have another Ext.Direct issue: we need to have a centralized way to intercept Ext.Direct responses and cancel callbacks if criteria is not met. One clear example is calling some actions that require authentication: server side would return an error and we need to intercept it before original callback is fired. Right now I'm forced to override Ext.direct.RemotingProvider.runCallback to have this kind of control, but this is kinda icky. I think it would be nice if RemotingProvider would fire 'beforeevent' event and if it gets canceled, won't fire the callback.

Regards,
Alex.

EXTJSIV-6081 - A HiddenField occupies visible space in the form

I upgrade to 4.1.1 RC1 and I found this bug is still there(I have more than one hidden field).

Thanks for the heads-up... I'll check into that.

@andong Make sure your CSS hasn't been cached.

Great!

Yea, it is easy to forget to rebuild your css with every release if you are using a custom SASS build.

Hello Don,
