Another TablePane Question

Hey guys,

Well this might be a BoxPane Question really, but Im not sure. 

So what I have is a 10x10 tablePane of 35x35 cells inside of a boxPane which
is inside of 
a panorama. I also have stuff underneath the boxPane (another boxPane with
other stuff 
in it). All ofwhich is in the left side of a splitPane.

I have buttons that add rows and columns to the bottom and right of the
tablepane 
respectivly, so its esentially a growing nxm checkerboard if you can picture
that. 

My problem is that when I add a lot of extra rows and the checkerboard
expands lengthwise, 
the box pane expands as well, which then ends up pushing my other boxPane
full of stuff off 
of the window. But when I add columns and the checkerboard expands
widthwise, the panorama
works properly, and the boxpane does not expand. 

I tried setting max heights and prefered heights of the boxpane that the
tablePane is in, but the panorama wont work andyou cant see any rows past
the max height of the boxpane. (exactly
like the second tablePane example on the pivot site, when you add to many
rows.

any ideas? I assume this is a simple fix, but I just cant seem to figure it
out. 

Thanks, 

Mike.

Unrelated question - if all the cells are the same size, why not use a GridPane?
