I have created a CustomComponent using Vaadin eclipse editor. Works awesome! However, I am not able to get the scrollbars to work with it. My main layout is Absolute layout and I just dragged and dropped the components on it. I did tried using a Panel inside the main layout but still no luck. Is there a way to get scrollbars working on the main layout i.e absolute layout in my case. I have also tried this, but this adds scrollbars on the components not on layout.
Thanks for the reply. I did tried that solution, but I am not able to get the scrollbars to work, Here what the Vaadin Editor gives me. The main layout is full sized and inside panel is full sized, now I changed the layout of panel from vertical to absolute and set the width and height in pixels.
public class TestView extends CustomComponent implements View{
/*- VaadinEditorProperties={"grid":"RegularGrid,20","showGrid":true,"snapToGrid":true,"snapToObject":true,"movingGuides":false,"snappingDistance":10} */

I think I it figure out. I changed the main layout to be vertical layout and added a panel set it layout to absolute and set width and height in pixels and it works now I see both vertical and horizontal scrollbars.
