Give width and height to your TabNavigator.

[flexcoders] Trying to control percentage based containers

[daddyo_buckeye]

I'm trying to control a percentage-based layout with several nested
containers. Unless I set a fixed size (in pixels) or a minWidth or
minHeight, my outer panel shrinks to a very small size.

I understand that parent containers inherit their size from the
content in their children containers. My challenge is that I'm
importing a SWF and sizing it to fill its available space (100%).

Am I missing something? Is there a way to force a container to fill
whatever available space it fits into (vs. expanding containers based on
children)? For example, maximize the
application container, then any child containers.

Here's my code:

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
