I have a PanelBar that I want to occupy 100% browser height and be in FullExpandedItem mode. And I want the PanelBarItem to scroll if there are more items than there are space for. I can't figure out the correct number of chickens to sacrifice to make this work.

I can get a FullExpandedItem mode PB to occupy 100% height but if the number of child items under a root item exceeds the available spac, the root items below it are pushed down off the screen and the whole PanelBar gets a scrollbar.

If you (a) know what the hell I'm talking about and (b) know how to make it happen, please share.

Hi Stuart,

I get what you're saying and I'm not sure how to fix it, but I have an idea.  How about using a ItemTemplate for each of the root PanelBarItems and setup a div in the template to control whether or not scrollbars are available?  It sounds like a messy idea to me but I suppose it'll depend on your implementation.

I see where you're going. Nice thinking.

How, without setting an explicit height for the template, would I stop the PanelBar just setting it's height as it does now though?

In principle, I think I could do it as the root items are fixed for the life of the app; it's only the child items that vary.

<thinks/>
I'd have to do something nasty like visiting each child item, getting its height and setting the template height to the sum. Ick!
