Hi all,

I don't understand why when I place a gauge component in a flex container, a scroll bar appears on the right side. I have been trying to get rid of it, but don't seem to know how! Any tips?

I'm not seeing this with default container/gauge settings.

Can you share the view's json ?

I think you need to add a property to the flex container - something like,  
`style.overflow : hidden`  
I can't find a reference.

This should hide the scroll bars, but it’s a bit like hiding the symptom instead of curing the illness.  
Maybe it’s good enough for OP though.
