Minimize NavBar Floating Window Size Out of Memory Exception

Easy fix found in a previous post:

Popup resize behavior (bug)?
by Kollen Glynn

Just set the max width of the root child element.

Hi Jason,

We're not able to repro the exception here. We're opening the main NavigationBar demo, minimizing it, clicking the title to open the popup, clicking the gripper and dragging all over the place but no exception.

Any idea what we're doing that is causing it not to show up?

Well my screen resolution is at 1600x1200.
In the sample broswer choose the Outlook 2007 UI demo.

Once that is open maximize the window.
Then collapse the left NavBar.

Then select the collapsed NavBar pane to open the Pop Up.
Then size the pop up as far right as you go.
The height doesn't seem to be a problem, just the width.

Hope that helps some.

Hi Jason,

We just tried this again and were not able to reproduce it. We followed the steps you outlined on two different machines (one with 1600x1200 and one with 1920x1200).

A couple questions:

1. Can you obtain a stack trace for the exception? Maybe by building the Sample Browser application provided in Visual Studio and running it in debug mode.
2. Are you running Vista with the Aero theme?
3. Do you have another machine you can try this on?

1. Can you obtain a stack trace for the exception? Maybe by building the Sample Browser application provided in Visual Studio and running it in debug mode.
See Below

2. Are you running Vista with the Aero theme?
No, Windows XP SP3 with regular XP theme.

3. Do you have another machine you can try this on?
Yes, I have already replicated it on another machine running Windows XP

Hi Jason,

We tested this on an XP box with SP3, and again could not reproduce it. Originally, we were testing Vista, because that's the platform you indicated in the original post.

Since the call stack doesn't include any methods from our source base, I would suspect it's something unrelated to our code. We have run into issues that are caused by the video card/driver, which may be the case here. Can you tell me what video card you are running? And does the other machine you tested have the same video card?

A quick Google search turned up one relevant page, which again points to the video card/driver.

I am using a NVIDIA Quadro NVS 285 and No the other machine does not have the same video card the other machine is running Windows Vista with an NVIDIA Quadro FX 360M
