Hi guys, how can I fit component to the parent size when I have this hierarchy?

[Sergio Casero]

I've tried with fitToParentSize, fitToParentWidth...

[Ruckus]

That picture doesn't actually tell us what the hierarchy is, and I'm not sure what you are trying to fit to what. Could you clarify what it is you're trying to do, and maybe add a mockup of your intended result?

[Sergio Casero]

Yep sure

I have vbox with 3 hbox childs:

With this code I get:

As you see, there is no scrollbar here, and that's because the listview height is "fillToParent"

[Sergio Casero]

If I disable the "fillToParent" I get this:

[Sergio Casero]

So... what I want? I want to fill the hbox height to the remaining height

[Ruckus]

Ah, inside the hbox, do vGrow = Priority.ALWAYS. That will make it stretch to fill the available vertical space.

[Ruckus]

vbox {
    ...
    hbox {
        vGrow = Priority.ALWAYS
        listView(...)
        tableView(...)
    }
}

[Sergio Casero]

ohhhhh thanks!! It works!! 🙂

[Ruckus]

Good to hear

[Sergio Casero]

And last question

[Sergio Casero]

hgrow works more or less the same?

[Ruckus]

I hope it's not your last question. As soon as we stop asking questions, we stop making any progress 🙂

[Ruckus]

Yes it does

[Sergio Casero]

Thanks you! 🙂

[Ruckus]

Many of the JavaFX layouts define such properties. You may want to read into them.

Nope, be sure that no, I'm really really noob with tornado haha, working for Android for 6 years

[Sergio Casero]

Yes, will do, thanks 🙂
