Parent.Height issue with nested horizontal container

(0) Share

Report

Posted on by hanzelmans

If I place a horizontal container and give it a height of 40, then nest other horizontal containers in it with Height = Parent.Height it seems that they do not accept the height.

In this example, the container that I just added keeps a Height of 200 even though the Parent.Height is displaying as 40.

If I change the child Height to Height = ContainerName.Height, it works.

Shouldn't a nested container be able to accept the height?

Set the MinimumLayoutHeight on the container to Parent.Height also. Otherwise a container will default to the minium height unless things in it expand it to the full height.

Hello !

You should put the property Minimum Height of your "SubContainer" to 0.
If your Parent.Height < Minimum Height, it will not "follow" the Height of the parent.
