Fit Control to Pane + Splitter Position

[D60]

Hello,

Using Splitters makes the UI much more attractive especially when a part of a FP. can be hidden by button. I'm talking about the splitter position property / or window bounds. I like this feature but somehow I am in a little trouble with the following:

First of all I place some splitters and place a control to the pane ( for example a listbox ) and set the control to " Fit control to pane". When I set this method, I can not set the position the splitter out of the window bound. More precisely, an error occurred when I set this value too low.

Consequently, a small part of the pane is always visible and can not be hidden. I've attached some pictures please take a look at.

So, when I want to hide a panel I have to set the panel content to NOT fit control to pane, it could be OK when my FP is NOT resizable but in most cases the window is resizable, so the listbox does not grow automatically.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Hey Mr. D60,

Just by using a property node for the listbox you cand show it or hide it.

see attached printscreen.
