Bug #4903
closedText in attributes not rendered properly
0%
Description
In a version of Kepler checked out from the svn tree, I did:
Tools->Instantiate Attribute
and entered
ptolemy.vergil.actor.lib.MonitorReceiverContents
and that created an attribute.
However, the attribute does not have the text
MonitorReceiverContents
visible
If I instantiate a ptolemy.actor.gui.ModelRepaintController
in the same manner, then the same problem occurs.
Dragging in a Documentation attribute has the same problem
1. In Search Components, enter "Documentation"
2. In the Search Results, under Actors-2_0, drag the
Documentation attribute into the graph pane
3. Note that the text is not visible.
This occurs in the Kepler-2.0.0 Beta 1 installer and in
the devel tree.

There are icon problems in Kepler. See also bug #5266.

ModelRepaintController is not in the Kepler Library, it should be added.
ShowTypes is in the Kepler Library, but renders as a wrench.
Maybe fixing the Kepler Instantiate Attribute is not so important.
Are there other SingletonAttributes that need to be added the library?
MonitorManager has two titles, I'll upload a screenshot.

Also, outreach/workflows/demos/Matlab/MatlabExpression.xml has an an
Attribute that is supposed to show the name of the author, but is a green
box. This attribute is under the red description text.
The MoML is:
<property name="annotation" class="ptolemy.kernel.util.Attribute">
<property name="_hideName" class="ptolemy.kernel.util.SingletonAttribute">
</property>
<property name="_iconDescription" class="ptolemy.kernel.util.SingletonConfigurableAttribute">
<configure>
<svg>
<text style="font-size:14; font-family:SansSerif; fill:darkgray" x="20" y="20">Author: Edward A. Lee</text>
</svg>
</configure>
</property>
<property name="_smallIconDescription" class="ptolemy.kernel.util.SingletonConfigurableAttribute">
<configure>
<svg>
<text style="font-size:14; font-family:SansSerif; fill:blue" x="20" y="20">-A-</text>
</svg>
</configure>

This screenshot is of outreach/workflows/demos/Matlab/MatlabExpression.xml
when run with
ant vergil -Dmodel=outreach/workflows/demos/Matlab/MatlabExpression.xml
I dragged the red text out of the way to show what the attribute that
says "Author Edward A. Lee" should look like.
In Kepler, this is a green rectangle.

The text rendering issues with, for instance, MonitorManager, are fixed. A patch added to the ValueIcon class in Ptolemy (by Christopher Brooks per our discussion 26Sep) makes it so attributes can declare _hideName and have it be respected.
The icon issue particularly mentioned by Christopher Brooks in comment 5 is another instance of the issue of bug 5266 (missing _icon attribute). It has been fixed in r30797.

I have made a separate bug (5721) to add ModelRepaintController to the library as suggested in comment 2.
Updated by Daniel Crawl about 12 years ago
The patch to ValueIcon was reverted.
See #5266 comment 18 for the fix.
