but your child purple box "containerBox" is still autosized

Here

I'd assume after you click the button

and the content grows

It should grow with the content no?

If I get rid of the min-width, it grows

i would have expected so also, yeah, leave it with me

btw, you dont need that "${" around the handler

onClick="memPeakLabel.text = 'ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh'"

is fine

alright!

I have another problem though, I need to get the value for min-width from runtime, can I do that?

Oh, I'd assume just setting style property directly in code would do that

Tried

haxe
this.containerBox.styleString = 'min-width: ${DEFAULT_WIDTH}px;';

got infinite loop 😦

Full code:

haxe
var root = ComponentMacros.buildComponent("assets/haxeui/xml/simple/debug/performance.xml");

fpsLabel = root.findComponent("fpsLabel", Label, true, "id");
memLabel = root.findComponent("memLabel", Label, true, "id");
memPeakLabel = root.findComponent("memPeakLabel", Label, true, "id");

this.containerBox.styleString = 'min-width: ${DEFAULT_WIDTH}px;';
this.containerBox.addComponent(root);

is there a way i can achive Frame's title style with an HBox?

Questions about propertygrids: * What do I need to adjust to change the 'balance', so that the labels can be smaller and the property content larger? * Is there any way to modify the header? (EG, could I put a button in the header, next to 'position'?) * Is there an exhaustive list of acceptable values for the 'type' field somewhere? I dug through the code to find it but I don't think what I found was right

Ah, the last one is: text, boolean, int/float/number (all treated the same), list, date, and anything else is treated as a textfield.

* not sure about different col widths, im guessing it might be possible with css - ill check * nope - no way to modify the header at this point

yeah, styleable via css, eg: http://haxeui.org/builder/?nznsub

Thank you on both counts!

Hmm, this trick works on the component builder: http://haxeui.org/builder/?jduzxg But on heaps backend, the button is forced onto a new line below the property group, even if I reduce the width of the property group (it seems the header does not accept the change in width)

Heaps backend also puts an empty header above the button, as if it's treating it as another property group

i mean, its a misuse, so its hard to be able to guarantee things are going to be the same

ill take a look, but im not going to spend ages on it

looks the same for me btw

so actually, as it turns out, its pretty easy to put items in the header with just a small change (testing now, but will push soon)

Hmm, I wonder what I did weird that it was different for me

also that is mega that you've been able to do that..!!!

is there support for 9 slices in the ui theming? i noticed the kenney theme is all fixed size images
