Hi,

We have several pages where we have about 5-6 different grids stacked vertically.

Each of these grids are held in their own container.

One of the main problems we are having with this is usability. Each of the containers is a fixed height, so when there is nothing in a container it is wasting a lot of screen space, and when there is lots of info in a container, we have to have scroll boxes on the container. (See attached image)

Both these situations make usability very poor, so I am trying to find out a solution that can improve this. If containers could expand in height to fit the contents than that would be one solution.

Another solution would be if would could have all the different grids held within one parent grid (IE each different grid would appear under different row of a parent grid, and you could then expand/collapse the parent grid rows).

I am not sure if either the above are possible, or if you can provide us with some other suggestions to solve the problem.

Thanks

Sorry for the duplicates - your forums was throwing errors on post, which is why I ended up with multiples of the same thing.

Thanks
