layout - Get rid of Vaadin Grid Pro minimum size

Question

So I have some Grids that won't shrink to less than 10 rows.

This causes some layouts to overflow where they shouldn't.

How do I adjust the minHeight?

I tried

grid.setMinHeight("0");

but that doesn't do squat.

Answer 1

grid.setMinHeight("0");

Setting min-height to "0" will never accomplish anything, ever. Everything that has a non-negative height has "at least a size of 0".

So I think you are confusing min-height with max-height. Max Height will do what you are asking for: Some smaller grids are okay as they are, but if a grid tries to expand to 1000px height, it is restricted by the defined max-height.

grid.setMaxHeight("500px");

Of course I don't know to what value exactly you want to set as max-height, so you might want to replace 500 with your desired value.
