Scrolling in Gridpanel

[stoertebeker]

Hi,
I have defined a gridpanel with two columns. The gridpanel is embedded into a container. The size of the container allows to view 6 rows. Since the actual list is longer (ca.200 rows) I thought that the gridpanel would automatically show scroll bars when i set autoScroll to true. The code below is generated by SenchaArchitect. Also I wasn't exactly clear what the difference between the 2 autoScrolls (on the gridpanel and on the viewConfig) is. I tried all combinations but no scroll bars.

                          xtype: 'container',
                          flex: 1,
                          items: [
                            {
                              xtype: 'gridpanel',
                              id: 'toprankings',
                              autoScroll: true,
                              title: 'Top Rankings',
                              store: 'TopCombined',
                              columns: [
                                {
                                  xtype: 'gridcolumn',
                                  dataIndex: 'userid',
                                  flex: 2,
                                  text: 'User'
                                },
                                {
                                  xtype: 'numbercolumn',
                                  align: 'right',
                                  dataIndex: 'score',
                                  flex: 1,
                                  text: 'Score',
                                  format: '0,000'
                                }
                              ],
                              viewConfig: {
                                autoScroll: true
                              }
                            }

Any hint appreciated.

I would remove the grid from the container. No need to place a gridPanel (panel) inside another container.
The grid also handles the scrolling itself, no need for autoScroll.

Hi Scott,
thanks for the hints. The good thing: it works! Is there any chance to get some hints why the container 'parent' prohibited the scrolling? I would just like to get a better understanding of the framework.I also disabled the 'autoScroll' and still get the scrolling. So what is the idea of the 'autoScroll' otion?
Thanks
Olaf
