VerticalLayout en VerticalSplitPanel

Flow
1

Hi,

I want to have a textfield on top and a splitpanel on the rest of the page.
On the splitpanel there must be 2 tables.

I cannot find a way to get the layout I want. The splitpanel does not takes the all the free space. Does anyone have a idea?

Thanks.

    mainLayout.setSizeFull();

    TextField textField = new TextField();
    textField.setHeight( "40px" );
    textField.setWidth( "400px" );

    mainLayout.addComponent( textField );

    VerticalSplitPanel splitter = new VerticalSplitPanel();
    splitter.setSizeFull();
    splitter.setFirstComponent( createTable() );
    splitter.setSecondComponent( createTable() );
    splitter.setSplitPosition( 50, Unit.PERCENTAGE );

    mainLayout.addComponent( splitter );

    setContent( mainLayout );
  }

  class Person
  {
    private final String name;
    private final int birthYear;

    public Person( String string, int i )
    {
      name = string;
      birthYear = i;
    }

    public String getName()
    {
      return name;
    }

    public int getBirthYear()
    {
      return birthYear;
    }
  }

  private Grid<Person> createTable()
  {
    // Have some data
    List<Person> people = Arrays.asList(
        new Person( "Nicolaus Copernicus", 1543 ),
        new Person( "Galileo Galilei", 1564 ),
        new Person( "Johannes Kepler", 1571 ) );

    Grid<Person> grid = new Grid<>();
    grid.setSizeFull();
    grid.setItems( people );

    grid.addColumn( Person::getName ).setCaption( "Name" );
    grid.addColumn( Person::getBirthYear ).setCaption( "Year of birth" );

    return grid;
  }

}

Try calling mainLayout.expand(splitter); after adding it to the layout.

Vaadin 8 does not have a method expand() in VerticalLayout.
I use mainLayout.addComponentsAndExpand( splitter ); now. That works!
