Hello to the forum members,

I am trying to create a presentation with a table and text box underneath it. I test the resize behavior of the presentation when I click on "Maximize\Resize Down" button. When the box is empty, the behavior is ok. When it is filled with data, once the button is clicked, it is enlarged in size and stays that way in the next clicks. My colleague found out that creating a subclass of Text with customized computeSize methods solves this problem (see ReasonableySizableText class in the code below).

If anyone knows whether this is a bug or wrong usage, I'll be grateful for your comments. I attach below the presentation class. If anyone knows how to upload file instead, please let me know.

Thanks,
Gidi
