Re: UiBinder Button created hidden not responsive after being shown

Use display:none rather than visibility:hidden then.

Its parent widget is the HTMLPanel at the top of the ui.xml/UIBinder hierarchy; its parent element, in the DOM sense, is a div.

I have just discovered that the problem relates to the fact that I have buttons in the same position, of which only certain ones are supposed to be visible at a given time. In other words, the user would see at the same position on the page one of:

ButtonA ButtonB ButtonC

or

ButtonD ButtonE ButtonF

or

BigButtonG (as wide either of the preceding groups)

The problem is that regardless of visibility, whichever of the three above displays is declared last has (in effect) a higher z-index and is the only one that will be mouse-responsive. So I am just about to implement a solution of explicitly setting div z-indexes in the code which shows/hides button groups.

In the ui.xml:

<g:Button ui:field='continu' addStyleNames='{style.continue-button} {style.hidden}'>

   <ui:text from='{strings.continu}' />

</g:Button>

In java when it's time to show the button:

   @UiField Button         continu;

...

   showWidget(continu);

...

    protected void showWidget(Widget w) {
        showElement(w.getElement());
    }

    protected void showElement(Element e) {
        e.removeClassName(style.hidden());
   }

 The button is now visible to the eye, but not to the mouse: clicking on it does not only not invoke its handler, it doesn't exhibit the small visual effect of activation.

How is the button attached to its parent widget?
