Utilizing Space in Canvas App

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 169

I have seen this before but now that I looking for it, I cannot find it.

 

On a Canvas App, I have a horizontal rectangle whose Height and Weight are fixed at 1366x768.  I want to put in another vertical rectangle that starts at the bottom of the horizontal rectangle and take up the rest of the space.

 

I have tried the Height Parent.Height - Rectangle1.Height.  The somewhat works but the top of the vertical rectangle is at the top of the page.  As mentioned, I would like it to start at the bottom of the horizontal rectangle.

    Hi @billf24 

     

    You're looking for:

    App.Height-Rectangle1.Height

    You need to change the Y also of the Rectangle2

    Y = Rectangle1.Height
