[1.2.3] Can't constrain window with container

[takayser]

Cool, works great. Thank you!

...but as it is still a workaround, I hope this is on the todo list for GXT 2.0!

There is a better way that works in all directions.

Notes:
- The window may open outside the container so you need to control the opening position.
- The window position is relative to the browser
E.g. if you collapse a west panel and there are windows in a center panel then the windows won't move and can be rendered out of the constraining container

Sven - I think this should be how the window's draggable should be in the code base (rather than just the window's title bar) - your thoughts?

        

    private class ConstrainedWindow extends Window {
        private Container constrainContainer = null;
        ConstrainedWindow(Container<Component> constrainContainer)
        {
            this.constrainContainer = constrainContainer;
        }
        
        @Override
        protected void afterRender()
        {
            super.afterRender();
            // Disable existing draggable adding one for whole window using existing handle
            getDraggable().setEnabled(false);
            Draggable d = new Draggable(this, getDraggable().getDragHandle());
            d.setContainer(constrainContainer);
        }
    };

Usage:

     ConstrainedWindow w = new ConstrainedWindow(constrainContainer);

Has this been implemented in 2.0 M1? I can't seem to get it to work yet without this workaround. I thought Window.setConstrain(true) would do it but it's still not working for me.

Thanks,
Steve
