ScrollView auto height property doesnt work / bug?

Hi,

I have a scrollView inside a window.
To this scrollView I will add 3 views, all with variable heights.
When I set the height of the scrollView to 'auto' it will never scroll and show the views that are outside the windowview.
However, if I add a height of, for example, 500 to it, it will show me the views outside the scope of the windows' height.

What am I doing wrong? Is this a bug?

  • Got it, the height should just be 460 if you want it to fit in the bounding box of the whole window. That makes sense :)

  • Try to use

    myScrollView.contentHeight = 'auto';

  • By setting a set height and width of the content I'm adding the the scrollview and not setting dimensions for the scrollview, I was able to get it to display correctly.

    I used Ti.Platform.displayCaps.platformHeight and platformWidth for the dimensions of my added content, a tableview in my case. You can turn these into percentages by multiplying them by a float number between 0 and 1.

    Setting the scrollview dimensions without setting tableview dimensions caused it to shrink to odd dimensions and not display right. (This is on TiMobile 1.6.1 and Android 1.6)
