Set minWidth=0 on your component. You may also need to fix its size based on its parent's size
From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jimmy5804 Sent: Friday, November 21, 2008 10:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Scrolling with custom item renderers I have a VBox-based custom component (call it 'A') that displays some data in a list of windowshade-ish item renderers. My problem is A doesn't scroll when its child renderers exceed its dimensions. Here are the relevant factors as far as I'm aware: -scrollpolicy is set to "auto" ("on" shows a disabled bar) -as far as I can tell, measure() is implemented properly in the item renderers. - A is nested inside another Box. - when I add more children to my A component, the value of A.getExplicitOrMeasuredWidth() continues to increase although it visually does not. Because of this last issue, I'm wondering if A is getting clipped by it's parent container which has scrollpolicy set to "off". If this is the problem, how can I show scrollbars on the inner container and not on the outer? Do I need to manually size A to match the dimensions of its parent? TIA
