I have a Panel that I have sized to be constrained at 10 pixels top, bottom, left and right so that it is flexible and based on the size of the browser.
Inside this I have a VBox that I want to be 100% the width of the Panel. Inside this I have Labels that I want to be 20% of the width of the VBox, so that they are 5 of them evenly spaced across. The text of this label maybe longer then can be displayed within the above constraints, that is fine and I want it to be truncated if it can not fit into the width equal to ~20% of the browser. The trouble is that if I code all the above elements with percentages the labels will expand and push the parent VBox beyond the width of the Panel and I do not want this. How can I constrain the widths of the Labels (or other containers|controls I may want to put at this level) so that it will not expand, without losing the flexibility of the overall design? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create Web Applications With ColdFusion MX7 & Flex 2.
