Description
The Metric component was not responding to size style values with units such as
width='100px'
orheight='100%'
because it uses an externalPlot
library that only accepts numerical sizes. This change adds a function that converts any size dimensions into a number of pixels, which can then be interpreted by thePlot
properly.Related Tickets & Documents
How to reproduce the issue
The file doc/gui/examples/controls/css_bug.py has example components and styles that previously did not respond to variable width/height Metric components. Running this file now should show the Metric component properly working.
