Enabling form resizing - forms

I have a existing form where the resizing is disabled. I tried to change the property Border Style to bsSizeable and border icons to [biSystemMenu,biMinimize,biMaximize]. I am able to resize but the controls inside the form is not sized accordingly. Any help would be appreciated.

The border style and icons control whether the form is resizable, but the controls on a form don't automatically move unless you've configured them to do so. Change their Align, Anchors, or Constraints properties, which all affect the size and position differently. You can also handle the form's OnResize event and arrange the controls however you want.

TextMeshPro Text Overlaps Icon

I have my highscore, when it changes it moves to the left, but i need to move it to the right.
How i could achieve that?
Here is problem in imgur picture
I'm using canvas with TextMesPro Text and icon as image
TextMesPro
Put the text and the icon inside a HorizontalLayoutGroup and add a LayoutElement to both. Set the HorizontalLayoutGroup to control child height/width, child force expand width/height. Set the flexible width to the text (in the LayoutElement) to a very high value. Set the preferred size of the image to the size you want the icon to be. You might also want to add a little bit of spacing to the layout group.

Setting Button's Size in TinyMCE 4

I'm new with TinyMCE and trying to set the size of some of the buttons in the editor to small and some others' to medium, in TinyMCE 4.
I know about this property toolbar_items_size but this sets all the button's size small or medium. Instead, I'm trying to set the size property of the buttons in editor.buttons[] manually after the buttons get registered with the editor but before the theme gets initialized since the theme uses Factory.create() to create buttons & that sets class btn-<size> to the button, which sets its size.
I've looked into TinyMCE's code too but have not able to figure out a way to do so. Also, I've observed that all the editor's events get fired after the theme gets initialized, like BeforeSetContent,..etc.
I'm using modern theme.
Is there some way to achieve this?
Thanks.
TinyMCE simply does not support what you are trying to do - the buttons on the toolbar(s) are a uniform size. You can pick that uniform size (as you reference) but you can't mix buttons of different sizes on the toolbar.

Change the border's color of a button in Unity3D

I began to work with Unity3D since one month and I'm trying to do an application which contains a menu, composed by a panel and several buttons. At this moment, I'm trying to customize the menu, I change the fill color of the panel and buttons, but until now I could not change the border color of the buttons. There is any way to customize the border's color of the UI buttons? I would appreciate your help. :)
The easiest way to add an outline to your button is to use the Outline component (doc).
Simply add the Outline component where your button image or text is. Then configure it how you like it :)
The above results in the following button:
No, you can not change just border color. If you use default buttons, take a look at Source image. It is basically a grey square with black borders. So when you change color of image black color remains black.
To customize buttons as you want you need either create nested UI elements:
or create sprites with colors you want and replace source image
I find nested UI elements to be the easiest way to do something like this. Simple example:
Start out by creating a panel and change the scale until you get the desired size for your button. This will be your "borders".
Next create another panel as a child of the panel you just made and change the scale to be just slightly smaller than your first panel and change the color.
In the Inspector for your panel, add component and type in Button and add it as a component.
Finally, add a text as a child of your panel for a label and you're done.

Ext JS - Panel not resizing on window resize

I have used the EventManager.onWindowResize event to handle window resize to adjust my layout. It works fine only for the Viewport. I want my inner commponents, viz. Grids and Panels to be adjusted accordingly. Is there a way to achieve this? I have written custom code to handle the resize individually for every component. Which works fine for my grids and panels. But, the panel headers don't resize! They are just stuck there.
My layout is as follows:
[Viewport]
[Form Panel]
[Panel containing Grid] [Panel containing Grid]
[/Form Panel]
[/Viewport]
The Grids resize but not the Panel which contains the Grid. Moreover, I've used anchor, but my percent widths are ignored.
Any default way to implement resize?
Used anchor layout everywhere. The Viewport required some JS code, but anchor solved my problem. Thanks everyone for their inputs.

Adjusting height of GWT Panels based on content

We have many screens where different types of GWT panels are used.
One common problem across many screens is that, content size is derived at runtime. So, if I define a height for a panel(Vertical/Horizontal/DockPanel) and when any new components are getting added within panel or content is more, panel height remains the same. So we are not able to see the contents. UI look and feel becomes worst.
How do we handle the height problems? Do we have to manually code to adjust every panel/widget height when something gets changed in screen. Is it not a very bad way of coding?
Also, now we have datagrids at some places, if no of records are very less, we see a huge space left out below datagrid, not sure how do we handle these cases?
Updated below with few examples as per the comment:
Do you mean to say that whenever we know that content grows vertically, we can always choose FlowPanel. Because, some of the screens we have used Vertical panel/Horizontal Panel and inside that when user clicks something a new fields getting added and shown. So Vertical Panel/Horizontal Panel height automatically not getting adjusted. One more example is that we have main Vertical Panel within a Dock Layout Panel content area and inside that there are some widgets whose content may vary. So now if I use a FlowPanel to the content which varies in size, what about outer panels? Will get it adjusted? Again to say the kind of panels we have used - Dock Layout Panel is used with fixed header, footer, left menu and Content area. A scroll panel is used within Content area. All our different widgets go inside this which is mix and match of horizontal/vertical/datagrids..etc.
In GWT (and HTML) you can either set the height of a panel or let it expand naturally. In general, once you set the height of something, you lose the ability to let it expand naturally.
Some Panels in GWT implicitly set their own height (or require that you set their height) and so are never good choices for dynamically sized content. LayoutPanels and ScrollPanels, for example, can never adjust dynamically, and expect you to provide size information programmatically. FlowPanels and HTMLPanels, on the other hand, are great for dynamic heights and would rather you not set their height explicitly.
If you want a scrolling panel, of course you have to define how high it should be - how else could it know when to scroll and when to just get bigger? But, you can put a FlowPanel (which expands automatically) inside a ScrollPanel (which you have set at 800px or whatever). Then, as you add content to the FlowPanel, it will expand inside the ScrollPanel. Users can then scroll to see different parts of the FlowPanel.
Trouble-shooting tips:
Make sure you aren't setting the height on panels that you want to expand naturally
Make sure you ARE setting the height on panels that should always be the same size
Try using FlowPanels instead of Horizontal/VerticalPanels
*LayoutPanels and AbsolutePanels always need explicit sizes and can never grow dynamically as you add more content. Anything you want to grow with content should probably be a FlowPanel or HTMLPanel.
