Thank you Roger, your explanation was quite helpful. I had already tried
using TabPanes for this, but was not working. After reading your
explanation I tried to solve the issue and I did it, the problem was
that the ImageView was inside a BoxPane, which was causing the ImageView
not to expand to fill the window.
Again, thanks for your help!

Hi Edgar,
Have you looked at the ComponentExplorer demo? It is very useful for
seeing some of these things. It is located at:
http://pivot.apache.org/demos/component-explorer.html
But, in short, a BoxPane, generally speaking, takes on the dimensions
of its children. It is usually a container used to line up components
along a vertical or horizontal axis. But, if you set the "fill" style
to "true", then it will try to fill up the opposite direction of its
axis. So, a horizontal BoxPane will fill the entire space vertically,
and a vertical one will fill the entire space horizontally. If you
want to fill in both dimensions, then either a GridPane with one cell
or a TablePane with widths and/or heights of "1*" will fill up the
entire space in either or both dimensions. You can see you to use
these from the Tutorial pages starting here:

Hope that helps,

Hello, I've been trying to get my components to fill the whole
window of
my application but I haven't been able to, I've got a simple BoxPane
<ImageView image="@background.png" styles="{fill: true,
preserveAspectRatio: false}"/>
Do you actually want background.png to strech to fill the entire Window?
