I just did a quick test where this is all I did for a dataset control:
import {IInputs, IOutputs} from "./generated/ManifestTypes";
import DataSetInterfaces = ComponentFramework.PropertyHelper.DataSetApi;
type DataSet = ComponentFramework.PropertyTypes.DataSet;
export class minHeightDatasetTEST implements ComponentFramework.StandardControl<IInputs, IOutputs> {
/**
* Empty constructor.
*/
constructor()
{
}
/**
* Used to initialize the control instance. Controls can kick off remote server calls and other initialization actions here.
* Data-set values are not initialized here, use updateView.
* @Param context The entire property bag available to control via Context Object; It contains values as set up by the customizer mapped to property names defined in the manifest, as well as utility functions.
* @Param notifyOutputChanged A callback method to alert the framework that the control has new outputs ready to be retrieved asynchronously.
* @Param state A piece of data that persists in one session for a single user. Can be set at any point in a controls life cycle by calling 'setControlState' in the Mode interface.
* @Param container If a control is marked control-type='standard', it will receive an empty div element within which it can render its content.
*/
public init(context: ComponentFramework.Context<IInputs>, notifyOutputChanged: () => void, state: ComponentFramework.Dictionary, container:HTMLDivElement): void
{
// Add control initialization code
const customDiv: HTMLDivElement = document.createElement("div");
customDiv.setAttribute("id", "customMinHeightTest");
customDiv.textContent = "Hello World!";
container.appendChild(customDiv);
}
/**
* Called when any value in the property bag has changed. This includes field values, data-sets, global values such as container height and width, offline status, control metadata values such as label, visible, etc.
* @Param context The entire property bag available to control via Context Object; It contains values as set up by the customizer mapped to names defined in the manifest, as well as utility functions
*/
public updateView(context: ComponentFramework.Context<IInputs>): void
{
// Add code to update control view
console.log(context)
}
/**
* It is called by the framework prior to a control receiving new data.
* @returns an object based on nomenclature defined in manifest, expecting object[s] for property marked as “bound” or “output”
*/
public getOutputs(): IOutputs
{
return {};
}
/**
* Called when the control is to be removed from the DOM tree. Controls should use this call for cleanup.
* i.e. cancelling any pending remote calls, removing listeners, etc.
*/
public destroy(): void
{
// Add code to cleanup control if necessary
}
}
The result was the same in regards to the min height:

It's this min-height being applied much further up the tree. Seems to be the height required to show two rows and paging.
