Description

I've got a table row like that:
<TablePane.Row height="1*">
<Label text="Trig" styles="{font:

{bold:true}

,verticalAlignment:'center'}"/>
<ListButton bxml:id="triggerSource" listData="['Off','CH1','CH2']" selectedItem="Off"/>
<ListButton bxml:id="triggerSlope" TablePane.columnSpan="2" listData="['Up','Down']" selectedItem="Up"/>
<TablePane.Filler/>
<Label text="Holdoff" styles="

{verticalAlignment:'center',horizontalAlignment:'right'}

"/>
...
</TablePane.Row>

The "triggerSlope" list button spans two columns. If you click the mouse on the point that belongs to the first spanned column (the third column in this example), the list expads and you can select an option. But if you click the point that belongs to the second spanned column (the fourth column, i.e. this column where the Filler is), there is no reaction. It seems that the mouse click goes to the Filler instead of the component. This is especially nasty for ListButtons, because their arrow is near the right edge, and this poses a serious usability problem.

Until it is fixed, can you give me a workaround for this?
