Hi Wesley, do you mean the maxHeight? My problem is with the height of the box getting bigger than the application instead of staying @ bottom 10.
If i set the height or maxHeight it works as advertised. I am not trying to just fix it though.. I am trying to understand/know why it does not work.. Thanks, for the reply though On Thu, Aug 20, 2009 at 12:47 AM, Wesley Acheson <wesley.ache...@gmail.com>wrote: > > > try setting the minWidth also. > > On Wed, Aug 19, 2009 at 6:29 PM, fotis.chatzinikos < > fotis.chatzini...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> <mx:Application >> xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; >> width="640" >> height="480" >> > >> <mx:VBox top="100" bottom="10" horizontalCenter="0" width="90%" >> horizontalAlign="left" verticalGap="5" id="debugWinVB_ID"> >> </mx:VBox> >> </mx:Application> >> >> >> At the start of the application the VBox height is 370 (Application.height >> - vbox.top - vbox.bottom) -> Correct. >> >> Child labels are added to this vbox in runtime and as soon as the >> cumulative labels height becomes > 370 the vbox expands and scroll bars >> appear @ the Application level...Why? >> >> Should not the Vbox remain @ 370 height and display inner scrollbars, >> according to the following rule:? >> >> * Component size determined by a pair of constraint-based layout >> properties (left-right or top-bottom) overrides any explicit or >> percentage-based size specifications.
