Well, during the layout phase, flex sets
the minWidth and minHeight to the value of its combined children’s
dimensions, if the minHeight and minWidth are undefined. So we just skip that
by defining them J
It used to be different in flex 1.0 and I
relied upon the parent always setting the width and height and creating
scrollbars automatically, but when 1.5 came out, they changed that behavior.
1.5 allowed the children to set the width and height of the parent. Yes it
seemed really weird… I tried to argue this, but it seemed set in stone
that this is how the layout manager should work. O well, what can you do? So
we found this workaround.

How did you get that fancy idea?
