Getting a TextArea to Fill All Available Space
Hello,
I've got a TextArea inside a ScrollPane. I'd really like both the ScrollPane
and the TextArea to grow as much as possible. The ScrollPane is sitting
inside a Form.Section. It looks like:
<Form.Section>
... other components ...
<ScrollPane horizontalScrollBarPolicy="fill_to_capacity"
verticalScrollBarPolicy="fill_to_capacity"
minimumPreferredHeight="240" minimumPreferredWidth="240"
Form.Label="Content" >
<view>
<Border styles="{color: 10}">
<content>
<TextArea/>
</content>
</Border>
</view>
</ScrollPane>
</Form.Section>
I've tried everything but I can't seem to get it to grow and fill up the
form as tyou might expect.

Yes. Styles are just the Java bean properties of the currently installed skin. So you can just look at the Javadoc for the skin classes.

Greg,
Thanks. I finally stumbled upon this. Is there any documentation on what can
go in the styles property for the different components?

Did you try setting the "fill" style to true on the Form? That will make the text area take up the full width of the form.
