Hi all,

I am trying to reach some complex representation but I am having trouble with sizes...

This is what I have :
index.php/fa/18263/0/

The red square is a container which has the childrenRepresentation set as a "HorizontalStack"

The blue squares are containers with VerticalStack representations.

The problem is that I am want something like this figure :

index.php/fa/18264/0/

So I am setting the sizes of some elements in the properties view to an smaller size.

The problem is that I cannot make them smaller, but I can make them bigger. How is that possible? Are there some constraints that I don't know about? If so... can I adapt something in order to be able to do so?

I also need to set a maximum size for the red container, because it will be inside a bigger container of red containers

Hi,

If you make reference to "experimental compartment" presented by Maxime
in this thread "Container with fixed freeform presentation" [1], this is
not officially supported yet.

Maybe Maxime will have an idea about the existence of some constraints
but it is currently on vacation.

Regards,

Laurent

The compartment experimental feature is not currently designed to handle
this kind of construction. It is currently able to handle one level of
compartment, Sirius will assume in several places that a container is a
simple container, a simple list, a region container or a region but
never at the same time a region and a region container. So a region must
be a List or a Container, ie: it must have a FreeForm or List children
presentation. Then a compartment can contain a container with regions.

The compartments currently takes all the available space of their
container: when you resize a container, it impacts the compartments and
the resize of a compartment currently impacts the sibling regions and/or
the container.

I think you might have to provide you own part/policy or layout to
obtain what you want.
