if i create a parent group with a min width, no max width and container layout row,
and then add 2 groups inside with a fixed width, the parent group grows to accommodate these.
if i try the same within an RG it will stack the child groups in the cell if the min column width isn’t wide enough. i don’t understand this logic, why is it called min width when it acts as fixed width?
The min width is the minimum width the group can be narrowed. It expands to take up as much space as it can, but it cannot be narrower than the value you set.
It applies the same even in the RG. The only reason the child groups are stacked must be that other cells are taking spaces so that specific parent group cannot expand any further. To accommodate the child groups in a row, you probably had better adjust widths of other cells.
i know min width is setting how narrow it can be, but there’s no max width so it should be able to grow. not sure what you mean by adjusting the widths of the other cells? you can only adjust the first cell of an RG?
here’s an example, the group and repeating group are setup the same (the green and blue sub groups are fixed width/height, red border to show the overlap).
but because the min width of column is 100 on the appearance tab, the groups stack because it acts like fixed width 100 not min width, if its actually min width then the cell should grow like the group above… the cell will keep growing vertically, i just don’t understand why it won’t horizontally.
