Created a view with specified size using

override fun createPrimaryScene(view: UIComponent) = Scene(view.root, 800.0, 600.0)

and was wondering how to get the tab pane and other nodes in that view to resize accordingly. The tab pane should grow vertically but its still stuck at a height around 240

In the view you will need to do something like

override val root = vbox {
    tabpane {
        vgrow = Priority.ALWAYS
    }
}

Had that however problem still persists

tabpane {
    vgrow = Priority.ALWAYS
    side = Side.LEFT
    tab("Example")
}

Results in
