Try the rowCount attribute of the DataGrid component...that will allow you to control the height of the datagrid component based on the number of elements in your dataProvider...
Then depending on how you have the layout containers nested and the heights set on them, the scrollbars on the parent VBox, HBox or whatever should appear as needed...allowing you to scroll the whole screen and not just the datagrid... robert l. brueckmann vice president merlin securities 595 madison avenue new york, ny 10022 p: 212.822.4821 f: 212.822.4820 -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Libby Sent: Monday, March 20, 2006 3:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Flex 1.5 - Automatically Lengthen dataGrid based on #rows Hello, Is it possible to have a DataGrid that is a minimum fixed size, but gets ever longer based on the number of rows provided to it? I basically need to NOT have a scroll bar on the DG, but instead scroll the whole browser window when necessary. In the Webster RIA book they alluded to it with the now deprecated heightFlex attribute, but experimenting with the replacement height attribute is not producing the desired result. Is there perhaps an example somewhere that you guys could point me to?
