how is this not a binding loop?

Hi all -

I was playing with one of the examples (Qt Quick Controls - Gallery), and came across this bit of code:

Flickable {
    id: flickable
    contentHeight: pane.height

    Pane {
        id: pane
        height: flickable.height * 1.25

How is this not a binding loop?

Thanks...

@mzimmers said in how is this not a binding loop?:

binding loop

you read here
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtquick-flickable.html#contentHeight-prop
flickable.height and flickable.contentHeight are two different things. flickable.contentHeight does not affect flickable.height.

@JoeCFD yeah, I did read that, but I didn't understand it at first. I guess the purpose of a Flickable is more to accept user input than to control the display of its contents?

As I mentioned in another thread, I'm still not able to get my Flickable's ScrollBar working, and I thought it might be related to this, but...now I guess not.

Thanks...
