Resizing HBox width to fit content

Question

I have an HBox with a fixed Width and Height and a Border. In that HBox I have a viewStack with a few different views. When the viewStack changes views, I want the HBox container to keep resizing to its content. Currently it stays at the fixed width. Is there any way to do that with an HBox setting?

Answer 1

I've not done this myself, but here are a few links which might be helpful:

• Make control resize itself to the children content
• Resizing a Flex Accordion container to fit its contents

Answer 2

You have to remove all sizing on the HBox. So remove any width or percentWidth attributes. Also make sure your ViewStack is resizing first.
