Hi Volker, I added the line below to the tobago-theme-config.properties file, which already existed within my theme jar by the way.
Sheet.fixedHeight=400 It had no effect at all on the sheet's layout. It layed out collapsed.

Hi John, The sheets height is not hardcoded, the values of the html style attribute is the result of the calculation of the layoutmanager. You can't set the size of tobago elements in the css, because those values are always overwritten by the style attribute. There is currently no 'fixed' height defined for the sheet, so the tobago default is used when fixed layout is requested. The defaults are 25px in scarborough and 20px in speyside. To set a fixed height for the sheet in your custom theme you need a file html/<theme-name>/standard/property/tobago-theme-config.properties add the line Sheet.fixedHeight=200 to set the 'fixed' height for the sheet to 200px. The values in the tobago-theme-config.properties files are used for layout calculation and must reflect the related values in the css files if those exists. Hope this helps. Regards Volker
