[comp.windows.x] resizable asciiDiskWidget

wjhagins@VUSE.VANDERBILT.EDU (William J. Hagins) (01/04/90)

I have an asciiDiskWidget ste up with edittype read, and textOptions=resizeHeight,
however, when the text is longer than the widget, it ends there.  No resizing or anything.


		What am I doing wrong???

It sounds like the parent of your widget is keeping it from resizing.  Remember
that a child can request a size change, but the parent has the final say.  Check
your parent widget to make sure that it is allowing geometry requests from its
children.
