JavaFX: Set actual height of vbox children

Question

I have a VBox pane and a few tableviews inside. When the window height is too small to show all tables in full size, they are minimized. But I want to see my tableviews in its actual size with a scrollbar, if required.

Answer 1

Just for the sake of completeness:

The solution is to wrap the content inside a ScrollPane which automatically manages the scrolling if the content inside grows or shrinks.
