#5440: [Interface Kit] empty space between selected item and menu item separator is 1px more than necessary --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: diver | Owner: axeld Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Kits/Interface Kit | Version: R1/Development Keywords: | Blockedby: Platform: All | Blocking: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment(by jackburton): One of the problem, I think, is that, while the separator height changes with the font size, the actual drawing is always just 2 horizontal lines: {{{ void BSeparatorItem::GetContentSize(float* _width, float* _height) { if (_width != NULL) *_width = 2.0; if (_height != NULL) { BFont font(be_plain_font); if (Menu()) Menu()->GetFont(&font); *_height = floorf(font.Size() * 0.8); } } }}} BSeparatorItem::Draw(): {{{ menu->SetHighColor(tint_color(lowColor, B_DARKEN_1_TINT)); menu->StrokeLine(BPoint(bounds.left + 1.0f, bounds.top + 4.0f), BPoint(bounds.right - 1.0f, bounds.top + 4.0f)); menu->SetHighColor(tint_color(lowColor, B_LIGHTEN_2_TINT)); menu->StrokeLine(BPoint(bounds.left + 1.0f, bounds.top + 5.0f), BPoint(bounds.right - 1.0f, bounds.top + 5.0f)); }}} So, either we use a fixed size for the separator item, or change some code in its drawing (and also in BMenu drawing code, I think), to accomodate the variable sized separator. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/5440#comment:2> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
