Properties

Style Tab - Styling Assistant

Property	Description	Name¹	Type¹	Get¹	Set¹	Get/Set Values¹
Width	Sets the width to one of the following: · A specific value e.g. 300px · The minimum value: this results in the control being just as wide as it needs to be to accommodate its children. · The maximum value: the width is taken from the parent container control. This width will then include the control plus any configured padding, border or margins. Note that this setting will be ignored if the parent container layout specifies a horizontal cell alignment of fill (this applies to Horizontal Box, Vertical Box and Column layouts). This is equivalent to specifying maximum above. *Warning: when a specific value is set, any padding, border or margins will be in addition* to the specified value and can cause the control to “break out” of its parent space. In particular, try and avoid specifying a width of 100%; use maximum instead.
