Unnecessary vertical scroll bar in items tab

[JonasSchaub]

A related problem is that after fragmentation, the gap at the bottom of the molecules tab becomes larger.

Before fragmentation:

After fragmentation:

As I understand it, the image structure heights of the imported molecule data models are updated when the fragments and items tabs are created. For the items tab, they have to be smaller than before to accommodate the horizontal scroll bar at the bottom and the doubled table header height (fragments column is split into multiple sub-columns). The problem is: this reflects back to image structure heights in the molecules tab, increasing the gap at the bottom.

I see two possible solutions:

1. (quick and dirty) remove the overall fragments column in the items tab (but keep separate "Fragment 1", "Fragment 2", etc columns) and then tweak the image structure height adjustment in a way that doe snot make things much worse in the molecules tab but makes the vertical scroll bar in the items tab disappear.
2. (touching the data models and more complex) separate the image structure height property of the molecule data models into separate properties, i.e. image structure height for molecules tab, fragments tab, items tab, etc.

To discuss and probably not fix for v1.2.

Are you sure, I don't think the structures once drawn are updated just because a new tab is added.
I would rather try to customize the "setImageStructureHeight" method in "GuiUtil". The easiest way would be to add another minuend in line 539 by trial and error.

I can't reproduce this on Linux.

Did you switch pages after the fragmentation was completed? Drawn structures or rather generated and displayed pages are not updated but they will be updated when you switch pages and a new page is created.

I tried that but then, the gap at the bottom of the molecules tab becomes even larger.

Let us meet about this

[JonasSchaub]

Gladly, can you suggest a time slot?

[FelixBaensch]

Friday morning before 11 am

Friday at 10 am would suit me, since I'm meeting the students at 9.

Just as a related note: there is another "unnecessary" scroll bar at the bottom of the histogram view.
