[flexcoders] vScrollPolicy acting real funny
Hey flexers, just got a quick question regarding scrolling policies. I have a SearchResults class which is a VBox. Now, inside this Vbox, I have a few components for a header(Search Results 1-4 of 253). Beneath that, I have another Vbox which displays the results. Heres the problem. I set the height of the header(which is just an HBox with some labels in it) to 10%, and then I set the height of the nested VBox to 90%. Now, when I turn on vScrollPolicy on the nested VBox(or auto), I dont get a scroll bar, so my results are getting cut off. Ive tried turning on/off/auto on the parent VBox, and setting the nested VBoxs policy to on, but Ill just get an empty scroller on the side. Is there something Im missing?

RE: [flexcoders] vScrollPolicy acting real funny
I've tried that, to no avail :-/
I'm thinking, could it possibly have something to do with using a
Repeater Object in the VBox?
Here's an excerpt:
mx:VBox xmlns:mx=http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml;
xmlns:utl=util.* horizontalGap=2 backgroundColor=#FF
minHeight=1 vScrollPolicy=off
mx:Metadata
[Event(closeSearchWindow)]
/mx:Metadata
mx:Script
![CDATA[
public var results:Object;
function fireCloseEvent():Void{
dispatchEvent({type:'closeSearchWindow'});
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:HBox backgroundColor=#C5CFE9 width=100% height=10%
mx:Label text=Search Results 1 - 5 of 254/
/mx:HBox
mx:VBox width=100% height=80% vScrollPolicy=on
mx:Repeater id=rp
dataProvider={results.searchResults.result}
utl:AFLink textAlign=left
label={rp.currentItem.title} textDecoration=underline
fontWeight=bold color=#0033CC width=100%
URL={rp.currentItem.url}/
mx:Text text={rp.currentItem.teaser}
width=100%/
mx:Label text={rp.currentItem.url}
width=100% color=#339933 fontWeight=bold/
/mx:Repeater
/mx:VBox
mx:Button width=100% height=10% label=Close
click=fireCloseEvent() backgroundColor=#0066CC/
/mx:VBox

Try setting minWidth=1 on the outer VBox and see if that helps.
