expand a GridPane to max width and height

is it possible to expand a grid pane to max width and height?

i have the following:

<fx:root type="javafx.scene.layout.AnchorPane" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml"
         stylesheets="view/Style.css">
    <children>
        <GridPane xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml"
                  AnchorPane.topAnchor="0.0" AnchorPane.bottomAnchor="128.0"
                  AnchorPane.leftAnchor="0.0" AnchorPane.rightAnchor="0.0"
                  hgap="10" vgap="10">
            <!--anything-->
        </GridPane>
    </children>
</fx:root>

and i'd like to expand the grid pane to the limits determined by the anchor pane (so whole screen except the lower part)

If you are using JavaFX directly without fxml. The code is:

GridPane.setHgrow(childElementOfGridPane, Priority.ALWAYS);
GridPane.setVgrow(childElementOfGridPane, Priority.ALWAYS);

Try set maxHeight and maxWidth properties of GridPane.

maxHeight="Infinity" maxWidth="Infinity"

And childrens of GridPane should contain 

GridPane.hgrow="always" GridPane.vgrow="always"
