Hi,
This is a curious situation, You should not have to be using
hard coded sizes here in order to share the space.
The main difference I think you are facing is that a scrolled
window requests a natural height of it's content but a minimum
hight of 0 (or the height required for a horizontal scrollbar).
One thing I dont understand, is why you have a viewport
outside of a scrolled window, what is that intended to do ?
Certainly, the viewport requires all the vertical space and
so none is left over for the scrolled window below (how
would that be unexpected ?).
Cheers,
-Tristan
