All children must fit in their container, or the container must show scrollbars. If you set the height of hbx1 to a fixed value, then when you resize box1, the HBox will display scrollbars. Or set the HBox height large enough to contain the tallest child, but that will do exactly as you describe.
I do not quite understand what layout you are trying to achieve here.

I have a Vbox,inside that i place 3 HBoxes and in each 3 Hboxes i place 2 others Boxes,when i am resizing each boxes inside the Hboxes individually,its is pushing whole Hboxes height. Below is the code <VBox> <HBox id="hbx1"> <Box id="box1"> </Box> <Box id="box2"> </Box> </HBox> <HBox id="hbx2">> <Box id="box3"> </Box> <Box id="box4"> </Box> </HBox> <HBox id="hbx3">> <Box id="box5"> </Box> <Box id="box6"> </Box> </HBox> </VBox> Here i am resizing "box1" at that instant it will push the Hbox ie."hbx1" so that there will be a white space appearing below "box2" also.But here i need each Box ie. "box1,box2,box3 etc.." to resize individually .Is there any way to implement this.Rezing containers individually. -- Mathew Easow Jacob +91-9886979038 Bangalore http://mathewjacob. <http://mathewjacob.wordpress.com> wordpress.com
