As @tatiang said, there is not enough info to give any kind of opinion whoever, since you mentioned `List Viewer` are you trying to do something like this? [https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/5fce83a95373b000115a9279](https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/5fce83a95373b000115a9279) ---

Are you looking for this? ![bibbi](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/b/8/b862b0b008ffa519c232a78027f782faebcda2a8.gif) This is what you need to change ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/1/c/1c902fd9743bdfad2cadfec415a5e127ec9c7154.png) or this ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/3/c/3c2979b37818016195ef60c1e7032a8c799409b3.png) **Plus** the `List Viewer` itself has to be **relative** ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/1/4/14e64102e824addda1630862a57e4638c3c91cb1.png) ---

hi thank you for this solution which is very close to what I would have liked to have done but if the list of items is long I will have to press the button a lot. There is no way that the list of items can be longer? ---

> [@bibbi](#): > > There is no way that the list of items can be longer? You can change the `height` of the `List Viewer` to **Absolute** which will override the size of the container (row or column). ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/4/b/4b04805ca6647e49b7236f920c9fed5244d18065.png) I used this setting ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/b/0/b03ce54a4be1a23845364ab8166fca6f5c162776.png) ---
