MythUI progressbar doesn't follow defined size

[JYA]

I first posted in the theme user list, but I'm now convinced it's a bug...

Example:

I have a progress bar like so:

<progressbar name="progress" from="baseprogressbar">

<area>170,140,100%-20,20</area> <layout>horizontal</layout> <style>reveal</style>

</progressbar>

It really makes no difference to which width I provide. Here I have 100%-20, but I could have 10 for all I care and the appearance stay the same . The width always appear to be the one of the ancestor and not the one define. Only the position is being used when defined.

If the widget doesn't inherit from another, then the size extracted from the defined area is used.

Problem is that if I make my window smaller, then the progress bar sticks out of it. I can't make it fit within the parent window; I have to define the parent window size to make the scroll bar fit.
