Hi all,
I’m struggling with Eto layouts. I made a little tool that lets you search for blocks based on the block name (seems like this will be a Rhino 8 feature…). Like the below:
I want to make the form resizable with the listbox changing size and all the other elements remaining a fixed size. Currently, when the form is resized, the ok button streches and the listbox remains the same size.
If I remove the OK button and have the listbox as the last piece of content in the layout, then the listbox resizes correctly.
How can I keep the OK button but have the listbox resize instead?
Thanks in advance
