I am trying to put a HorizontalMenu component in the docked header and when I do and click one of the menu items the menus height shrinks when the sub menu pops down. Any idea what is causing the components height to shrink? How can I stop it? The component is in a flex view set to height 60. i have toggled the shrink and grow properties, but it does not make any difference. ---

There’s not any way for you to prevent this because it’s a bug in the component. I’ve opened an internal ticket to address the issue. ---

When is this going to be fixed? We also use HorizontalMenu in a docked header and every time you click on the items to open the sub items the HorizontalMenu component moves all the way to the left side of the docked header. I can only prevent the vertical shrink with “height” parameter but haven’t found a way to prevent the menu from moving to the left when clicked. ![HorizontalMenu](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/e/e9662dc52449c61a413b4748a706f454b118c8ab.png) ![HorizontalMenuBug](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/2X/b/bfa63f11e901f23b041b6f98fe428a34c92ad83e.png) ---

@manuok, what you are encountering is a combination of bugs. We hadn’t seen the position change issue previously, so I opened a new ticket for that one. I believe we’re slated to bring the vertical shrink issue into development in the next week, so _hopefully_ a fix would be in place in the nightlies by Friday of next week. I can’t guarantee anything because of the pending holidays. As for the position change issue… It’s _possible_ that it might be roped in with the other issue, but it could also not be, at which point I couldn’t make a reasonable estimate as to when it would be completed. ---

Alright, looking forward to be able to use the component properly in our docked header. ---

It looks like this was fixed in 8.1.5. Are you still encountering the issue? ---

I found a solution, the problem was due to a wrong configuration of the “shrink” property of the following component. Because of this, the components that are following the horizontal menu moved to the left when I clicked on the menu to access the sub items. The problem was solved by setting the shrink property to 0. Thank you
