<Swing Dev> [10] JDK-8004029: [macosx] The long Tab titles are not clipped with dots at the end.

[Shashidhara Veerabhadraiah]

Hi All, Please find the updated Webrev at the below link.

 

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sveerabhadra/8004029/webrev.01/

 

I have added a new test that would go through different laf's and runs the test of the tab titles. Previously this test had been a single default laf test with appletviewer and now replaced for multi laf testing along with the normal java execution. There are instances of inaccurate rendering of the titles with respect to the tab pane component like clipping, starting offset and going beyond the tab pane size as shown below in some of the examples:

 



 

This requires a different thread to really understand why this variation across the multiple laf representation and needs more proper bounding the title to fit properly within the tab pane space. Hence I will be raising multiple bugs to indicate these current issues and will be resolved later. Please note that this issue is not because of the clipping of the text that these current changes that are done under this bug fix.

 

Thanks and regards,

Shashi

I am not sure is it possible to prove, but I think that we need to pass tabPane as a component to ClipStrinUfNecessary.
