I have an application which is initially set to a resolution of 800*600 px. IN that windo I create a menu. So the menu has a width of 800 px. But when I manually resize the window the menu still remains with 800 px. So I did the following. In each renderloop I do this:
menu->getAbsolutePosition().getWidth() returns the correct value (e.g. first 800 and then 1280 but the menu is still drawn with a width of 800 px. Take a look:
You shouldn't have to do this. When the window is resized, the root GUI element is also resized. The menu and toolbars are set to fill their parent, so they should also resize automatically.
Are these children of something other than the root GUI element? If not, it could be a bug with the Windows device.
