Collection widget layout not displaying as expected

[berkob]

I'm currently providing my collection widget mashups through a service that provides: the mashup name, the width, the height, and some extra text. I want my FlowLayoutGravity property to be "Edge" but when I set that the first cell is correctly on the left, but additional cells are being pushed to the right and leaving space in between cells that is not desired. What am I doing wrong here?

What is your thingworx platform version?

Hey thanks for responding to all of my questions today. I am sure it is 8.x, how can I find my full version within thingworx?

A lot of collecton widget issues were fixed in 8.4.0-8.4.3. In Composer, you can click on "?Help" (top right-hand corner)->About. The version will be displayed at the bottom of the splash screen.

thanks, my version is: 8.4.1-b2126

Please try upgrading to 8.4.3 and see if the problem persists. This should be just a patch upgrade, meaning you only need to 1) Stop Tomcat, 2) Replace Thingworx.war 3) Start tomcat.

The only change in the documentation (relevant to collections) that I am seeing is: "Fixed an issue that was preventing the Collection widget from consistently loading results in IE11". I'm using Google Chrome, so would I get any applicable benefit from upgrading?

There are some that weren't documented/bulk fixed, but before sending you on the chase, would it be possible for you to provide me your sample mashup with dependent entities? I could test it in my local system and check for config errors at the same time.

It's a work project, so I can't provide it to you, sorry. Trying to see if an update is doable, but it's not up to me.

and sure thing, just hoping to be helpful :-)
