[CLOSED] [1.0] Toolbar Overflow

[Ben]

Hi,

The toolbar overflow doesn't seem to work with comboboxes - it simply disappears. I've set the width to 200 in the example below to force the toolbar to overflow. In the overflow the buttons will be visible but the combo isn't.

    <ext:Toolbar runat="server" Width="200" EnableOverflow="true">
        <Items>
            <ext:Button runat="server" Text="Button" Icon="Pencil" />
            <ext:Button runat="server" Text="Button" Icon="Pencil" />
            <ext:Button runat="server" Text="Button" Icon="Pencil" />
            <ext:Button runat="server" Text="Button" Icon="Pencil" />
            <ext:ComboBox runat="server">
                <Items>
                    <ext:ListItem Text="Value1" />
                    <ext:ListItem Text="Value2" />
                </Items>
            </ext:ComboBox>
        </Items>
    </ext:Toolbar>

If you increase the width in the example above to 400, there is enough space for the buttons but not the combo. In this scenario the overflow button appears but there are no controls in the overflow menu.


Is this something that could be resolved please?

Hi,

Toolbar oferflow manages buttons only
Here is the problem discussion

How hard it is to do it?

ToolbarLayout would:
- have to make copies of all components to put them in the overflow menu (but the copies will almost certainly have problems, e.g. unique ids).
or
- carefully move components from the toolbar to the overflow menu and back again (ToolbarLayout wasn't designed for this, so this would be a lot of work)."

Thanks Vladimir. Hopefully they will find a suitable solution at some point in the future. It would be better if the menu could say something more meaningful when the only control that is overflowing can't be rendered rather than just "no items".

It's not a horrendous problem for us. I've only got one toolbar at the moment that this is an issue on and only then if the user has their screen at a particularly small size.
