Hi I want to completely shrink the left part of a vsplit by setting its widthleftprop property to zero. While this works as expected with SWT, IE and Firefox fail to completely shrink the left part . The part gets shrunk to a size of around 20 pixels or so. I took care of deactivating all border, padding etc. settings. Does anybody know the reason for this behaviour? Might it come from some Style Sheet definition? Martin ---

Hi, there is a explicit minimum width in the browser of 40 px. Reason for this: always guarantee an easy picking of the splitter-line. Good reason? If not: please come back, we could update the cotrol (with some exta attribute “allownullsizing” or so). Bjoern ---
