Set minWidth=0 on the VBox and now it'll be 100% of the outer Canvas.
See my other post (a few days ago, in response to Ian Skinner) for an
explanation. I'll try to explain this in more detail in a blog post.

Re: [flexcoders] Shouldn't this VBox have a scrollbar?

Hi Jas,

I expect the measuredHeight to be 612, which it is.  The problem is  
that I also expect the VBox to respect the height of its parent  
canvas (300) and thus display a vertical scrollbar.


Thanks,

Tom
