IZ03566: MOVING APPLET WINDOW MAKES IT MAXIMIZE WHEN BUTTON RELEASED

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Error Message: N/A
  .
  Stack Trace: N/A
  .
  When we move that window across and down the screen with a mouse
  drag then release it, the window will maximize covering the
  complete screen.
  This occurs on Sles 10 and also on an internal IBM platform
  based on Sles 10.
  

Local fix

• N/A
  

Problem summary

• Applet window maximizes when moved with mouse on LinuxIA32 Sles
  10
  

Problem conclusion

• This defect will be fixed in:
  5.0.0 SR6
  .
  By setting lastWindowRef to null in
  XWindow.java:handleMotionNotify() (if mouse had been moving)we
  could avoid extra MouseClickEvent if we had dragged the mouse
  between MousePress and MouseRelease.
  Our XWindow.java code lack multiclick handling. So, when user
  drags mouse on the screen on Linux box  this leads to delivering
  double clicks when user expects single clicks and single click
  when user expects  no clicks at all. To fix this we introduced
  AWT_MULTICLICK_SMUDGE variable to describe an area (actually
  this is a rectangle) where mouse moves with holding mouse button
  treated as non_dragging moves  (in this case we suppose that
  user just want to click multiple times). If user moved mouse a
  lot and leaves  the  SMUDGE_AREA we change our local variables
  and supress an additional MOUSE_CLICK generation ( we suppose
  that user started dragging ).
  .
  To obtain the fix:
  Install build 20070908 or later
  

Temporary fix

• The problem can be solved by setting DefaultLookAndFeelDecorated
  to true.This is just a workaround.
