Hello there, I want to create a view containing (among other things) a progress bar in a GridPane. I don't want this progress bar to shrink in height if the window's height is reduced. I have tried vGrow = Priority.NEVER, but that didn't change anything.

class ProgressBarView : View() {

    override val root = gridpane {
        row {
            progressbar {
                gridpaneConstraints {
                    margin = Insets(10.0, 10.0, 5.0, 10.0)
                    useMaxWidth = true
                }
            }
        }
        constraintsForColumn(0).percentWidth = 100.0
    }
}

I guess I could explicitly set the minimum height using minHeight = some_number, but I'd like to avoid having to deal with absolute height values.
Is there any other way?

Thanks in advance 🙂

Maybe you can use minHeight = USE_COMPUTED_SIZE.
I don't know if this works with TornadoFX, but when you do this on FXML, it will keep the minimum size equal to the size of the first rendering.

@Luigi Scarminio Thank you for the reply. Didn't come to test it out until now, I'm sorry. Sadly, it doesn't work: The scrollbar still vertically shrinks.
