Hi All:

I am just wondering if there is a way to set individual components to not stretch when you have a XY View setup in mode: percent? i.e have certain components setup at a fixed width/height while the rest scale? Or is this not possible?

Thank You

What you can do is set your Coordinate Container to `fixed` rather than `percent`. Then, for each component in that container, you can put in a percentage for its height/width/position properties as needed while leaving the other properties as pixel values if you don’t want it to stretch or move in that direction.

For example, this has a constant height and y-position while stretching horizontally as the view width increases:

Perfect - thank you.
