ColumnPanel full width row not full width

[rickhurlbatt]

What I’m trying to do:
I am trying to set a column panel to full width. The form is a blank form not inside the content_panel of the Standard Form. See snip below - green box is a FlowPanel - red is the ColumnPanel. Flow panel full width is working as expected - column panel shows the bounding box exgtend to full width but the content is still constrained. The top panel is also a column panel.

I have tested this with anvil-extras multi-select drop down (highly recommended BTW) and standard buttons as well - no difference.

Properties panel of the column panel is shown.

Am I just being silly here or is this a bug?

Hi Rick,

If you set the components inside the ColumnPanel to be full_width_row, that should give you the desired behavior.

Here’s a similar issue:

Full Width Row not working as expected

Using the Dashboard template, I have a “content_container” card (column_panel) added at design time and when the user clicks menu links I clear and reload forms inside that container. The content container itself responds to the “full_width_row” setting, but any form I load into it at runtime does not and ends up occupying only a small central window in the available space. Each of the dynamic forms respect the full width setting if dropped directly in at design time. Is there anything else I…

Thanks @brooke - it seems I was just being silly!

For anyone that needs this in time to come, see attached clone link showing two full width column panels, one with a button set to full width row at the top and the bottom one with the panel set to full width but the buttons without full width.
