stack and flow

Howdy all,

I have a question about stack and flows.

In the small application I am trying to make I use edit_line to get input
to the program ex.

Shoes.app do
  background blue ... lightskyblue
  flow do
    stack :width => 10 do # 0.15 pixels colum from left edge
    end
    flow :width => 0.15 do # colum 30 pixels wide background green text IP
      background red ... white
        para "Host "
      end
      host_ip = edit_line
    end


  flow do
  stack :width => 10 do
  end
  flow :width => 0.15 do
    background red ... white
    para "Username "
  end
  user_name = edit_line
end

What happens is that each edit_line or rather the space between them
increases with every edit_line. So my friends what is it that I am doing
wrong here?

Shoes on

Hi Per,

Thank you for showing the code.
I added a `end` at the tail of your code and ran with Shoes 3 for Windows
and got this snapshot: http://www.rin-shun.com/tmp/snapshot20111114.png

Ah,.. I don't see anything wrong, though...

Can you explain what you mean a little bit more clearly?

You've found a bug!

Thank you for letting me know. I'll debug Green Shoes asap.

Hi Per,

The following is a patch to solve the problem you found.

green_shoes/lib/shoes/helper_methods.rb, line 181

before:
  slot_height = flag ? [slot_height, y].max : slot_height + max.height

after:
  slot_height += max.height

After doing some more tests, I'll update the github repo of Green Shoes.
If you have time, try out the above patch. ;-)
