Hi All

Continuing great project with EWB 2.X using plenty of responsive elements. I can't quite remember if Tim got anywhere with the ability to automatically resize a parent (say a form) based on its contents? I know he was talking about this. Can anybody bring me up to speed please?

Thanks
Mark

I can't remember either, but I think there is an event at the end of
the re-size that you can use to resize the parent in code. Fairly sure
I did that, but not able to check right now.

There are still some issues when you have more complex containers with outer and client elements and nested containers, so this functionality is still disabled.  However, if you look in the WebCtnrs unit (search for "Experimental !!!!"), you'll see that you can un-comment the AutoSize property for the TBasicPanel and it will allow you to do an auto-sized parent container.

Understood Tim. I think I'll leave alone for now.
