One of those days... I felt like George Costanza in that Seinfeld episode where he exclaims "Worlds are colliding" :) (Flash-HTML in my case).
It seems scrollbars in a flex app are from the flash runtime, not the browser. I was confused because the UI was so nice and fluid but when the scrollbars appeared the container did not auto resize to accommodate the scrollbar. After thinking about it further, although this is not what I wanted it is normal behavior. In my case the UI component being overwritten by the scrollbar was a window control for fullscreen and I want it to be visible without scrolling. I found a solution here http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg82680.html that resolves my issue nicely. HTH, thanks for listening ;-) -Greg From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg Hess Sent: Tuesday, February 12, 2008 2:04 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [flexcoders] Browser scrollbars corrupting layout Hi All, I have been working on my applications layout and trying to make it as fluid as possible. Images seem to be my main culprit as they don't scale well when using % based layout. I have accepted this, however when I resize the browser window past the image(s) region the browser scrollbars appear. Unfortunately, when this occurs the ~30 pixels (horizontal or vertical) that the scrollbars take up overlap my components corrupting the layout. Is there a way to resolve this behavior? Any help much appreciated. Thanks, Greg
