Description

Steps to reproduce:
I spent many hours before I found simple solution how can I display scrollable content inside VBox or HBox containers.
I would like to know what magic implemented in mx Canvas container. And can I apply same behavior without using my hack.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" initialize="onInitialize()"
paddingLeft="100" paddingRight="100" paddingTop="100" paddingBottom="100">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
private function onInitialize():void

{ var a:Array = []; for(var i:int = 0; i < 100; i++) a[i] = i; r.dataProvider = a; }

]]
>
</mx:Script>
<mx:VBox width="100%" height="100%" borderStyle="solid">
<!-mx:Canvas width="100%" height="100%" horizontalScrollPolicy="off"->
<mx:VBox width="100%" height="100%">
<mx:Repeater id="r">
<mx:Text text="Line

{r.currentItem}

"/>
</mx:Repeater>
</mx:VBox>
<!-/mx:Canvas->
</mx:VBox>
</mx:Application>
