Description PalmSource Eclipse Bug Tracker CLA 2005-03-24 13:28:41 EST
There's a scenario in the Product Configuration dialog (from Manage
Configuration) where clicking on what one might think is a link in the right
pane of the dialog instead scrolls the right pane.  I'll illustrate with
pictures for details.

The setup is to have Eclipse (or an Eclipse-based product as in my case)
installed in some long directory name and have long unbroken words in the title.
 In my case, the directory is C:\Program Files\PalmSource\Palm OS Developer
Suite\eclipse.  Now when the Product Configuration dialog is brought up and the
directory is selected, the right hand pane is filled with the directory name at
the top and some options below (as expected).  The relevant piece here is that
part of the long directory name wraps to the next line but some text that cannot
wrap (in my particular example the word "Developer") and thus a horizontal
scroll bar is created.  All this is peachy so far.  See error_pict_1.jpg for
reference. 

The error I'm reporting occurs when you try to click on the Disable link.  When
you click there, instead of following the link and doing a disable, the pane
scrolls to the left; see error_pict_1.jpg.  Obviously the click is acting as a
focus first but then maybe the coordinates are off and the click isn't
registered on the Disable link.  

Anyway, the expected result is that the Disable occurs and the scrolling doesn't
occur, especially since the mouse icon indicated that I was clicking a link and
not just getting focus (sorry, the mouse icon state wasn't captured in the
screen shots).

Dejan, is this form behavior?
