GUI has two different sizes about basicv2 HOT 10 OPEN

Can you provide an example of how BasicShell looks when this happens?

from basicv2.

It is the black line:

I started BasicShell four times: the first three attemps were as expected, but then the windows is very small. The good news: it can be resized

from basicv2.

Strange. I've never seen this behaviour. I've modified the GUI initialization code of the BasicShell to see if that has any effect. Please give it a try.

from basicv2.

Console: Small size at the first start, then always the bigger size
BasicShell: the size toggles: big, black line, big, black line, ...

from basicv2.

No idea then...I've switched the order of some stuff in the BasicShell, please see if that does something...

Perhaps this helps: here is the hwininfo of the big and the little windows:

The problem seems to be, that Java's layout manager thinks, that the window is empty when it actually shouldn't be. That's quite strange and I can't reproduce it. I'm on vacation now for two weeks but I'll try to reproduce it on Linux afterwards.

from basicv2.

The different window size is not really a problem, so this issue can wait.
I wanted to try it with a commerical XServer, but it can't find the bought license number. So I have two weeks time for searching it ;-)

Have a beautiful holiday
