Cell Size Issue in Repeating Group – Extra Space When Content Varies

clem · 2024-11-14T11:53:26.733Z

Hi everyone,

I’m facing a layout issue in a repeating group that I haven’t encountered before, and I’d like to understand why it’s happening and how to fix it.

Here’s a quick summary of the problem:

In my repeating group, each cell has the same height across all rows. If one cell has a longer description and another has a shorter one, the shorter description cell still takes up the same space, leaving empty space I don’t want. The same thing happens when I show a nested repeating group inside one cell and not in others – the other cells still expand as if the nested repeating group is there, even though it’s hidden.

Is there a way to make each cell’s height adapt individually to its content without adding unnecessary space?

Thanks a lot for any help or tips!

Some picture to help being clear :

Hi everyone,

I know this topic has come up often, and I’ve tried the commonly suggested solution of putting the repeating group inside a group and enabling “Collapse height when hidden,” but it’s not working in my case.

Are there any other workarounds or settings I could try to make each cell’s height truly adapt to its content? Any insights would be really appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

Turns out the solution was super simple – I just needed to uncheck the “Stretch row to fit vertical space” option. That did the trick!

Sorry for cluttering the forum with this, and thanks anyway for taking the time to read my post. Hope this helps someone else down the line!
