Description (last modified by diver)

On Haiku (be it Alpha or nightly 37948), BPopUpMenus do not truncate text to fit their given rectangle when set. The image below shows the same code running on BeOS R5 & Haiku rev 37948.

1-3 / A-C happen as expected. The problem is at 4 / D. Details below.

  • 1: shows the popupmenu with a name on R5, A: shows the same on Haiku - both as expected.
  • 2: shows the contents of the popupmenu on R5, B: shows the same on Haiku - both as expected.
  • 3: shows the popupmenu after an item is chosen. C: shows the same on Haiku - both as expected.
  • 4: shows the popupmenu after a very long named item is chosen. on R5, the name is truncated.
  • D: shows the popupmenu after a very long named item is chosen. on Haiku, the name is not truncated and extends well beyond the size specified as the limit of the popupmenu rectangle's width.
