Listbox.ListColumn.MinWidthActual and being resized by the window

General
1

So I’ve got a Listbox essentially locked to all sides of the window so it resizes as the window does.

I’ve set the MinWidthActual for a column to 400, and there’s three columns.

If I make col1 50 pixels, col2 400 pixels, and col3 400 pixels and then resize the window down to it’s minimum width col3 pushes col1 and col2 off the viewable area, and col2 actually goes smaller than it’s MinWidthActual. I’ve tried calling invalidate and refresh on the ListBox in the window.resize event but they don’t seem to trigger any kind of size checking.

Here is a video; note that at the end if I click on the column, the minimum size goes into effect.

Do I need to manually check the sizes at the during or at the end of the window.resize event or is there another method to call to have the listbox revalidate all of the column widths?

(This project is still a work in progress, so as my buddy Wil Nichols says; I love you. Don’t steal.)

I’ve just formulated an idea to set the col3 widthMaximumActual to the value of the other two columns minimums minus the width of the listbox during the resize so it wouldn’t be possible to make col3 too large to begin with; but I’d still like to know if there’s something I’ve missed with the revalidating of the columns.

Also, my setting max width idea didn’t work

Have you seen that you can use a % value for the column widths ?
