verticalScrollPolicy="{(thelist.dataProvider.length>thelist.rowCount)?'on':'
auto'}"works, sort of. When the list data changes, I think the displaylist is invalidated, redrawn, and then this binding action happens and verticalScrollPolicy is set to 'on' . but then the display list isn't invalidated again, so you don't see the width appropriately change until the next time the list data changes. Kind of odd. Alex - I'd assume that in the setter for verticalScrollPolicy the display list needs to be invalidated again. This may be a bug, not sure.

I think I'll set verticalScrollPolicy to {dataProvider.length()>rowCount?"on":"auto"}, so I don't have those blank scrollbars present when they're not needed ;p (haven't tested this yet, but hopefully it works) Btw, in googling to find out what lockedRowCount and rowCount were, I found your page ;) http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui/2007/07/the_future_of_list_classes_tre.html Thanks for taking time to answer my simple question, Seth From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alex Harui Sent: Thursday, November 01, 2007 1:56 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [flexcoders] problem with list component If verticalScrollPolicy="auto" (default), the scrollbars are not factored into the width so its appearance does not shift your UI.

However, if you then add items to this list causing it to require a scrollbar, the scrollbar does not increase the total width as expected, but instead is placed over (and thus hiding) the content the list previously was sized to. =( Anyone ran into this and found a workaround?
