[Bug 1429263] Re: [Popover] Popovers should expose a maximumHeight property

 

The content width/height should ideally be clamped to the maximum screen
size minus some margin value. Instead of adding more properties aliased
from the content itself, it would be wiser to expose that component
through a property so developers can configure the content item freely.

Title:
  [Popover] Popovers should expose a maximumHeight property

Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Currently, the height of a popover seems to depend solely on the height of its contents. However, there is no height limit, so if the contents are taller than the application's window, they will be cut out of the screen.
  The developer cannot know whether this will happen or not, because different devices have different screen heights (also, there's the portrait vs landscape scenario), or the popover's contents can be dynamic.

  The Popover object should expose a read-only property, maximumHeight,
  which the developer can use to restrict the content's height (for
  example, using a Flickable). The maximumHeight property must be
  computed so that it's possible to dismiss the popover.
