Hello Thunkers ! I know this was debated alot of times, ive already searched the entire forum about it, but all topics are old or workarounds. So here i am. ![screen](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/3/f/3f0ca87cfccc2cbd2ffeef2f92d4f29660dcb2d2.png) As i see, Row container has now scrollable option. But whatever options i set to it, it doesnt work for me (put in a fresh new screen only a row, with absolute values, and so on). What do i do more to work ? (dont need workaround, just want to know if that "scrollable"option works or not.) Thank you for your time. ---

Can you explain more? Scrollable is always working but you need the system to be aware when to scroll. For example, if you have a column / row with scrolling option set to true then you have to give this row / column a known size either by using absolute size or by relative (percentage %) but not to be computed by the system (fill container and fit contents should not be used in height or width). ---

Ok, ill explain more. I created a new empty screen. I created a Row with absolute sizes: Height=20; Width=200 Set Row scrollable to true Put a label inside that row, then when screen opens, i cloned that label, lets say 10 times (enought not to fit in row). What im trying to do is to workaround a mode to display a table-like data, every label will be a cell of the table, you got the ideea. But my Row dont scroll…cant see all the labels created. Maybe theres something about labels inside it ? (they are set to fit contents). They have to be absolute sizes too ? 🤔 ---

I made few tested and found out there is an issue with the `row scrolling`. It actually activates it as column. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/4/0/4095b95393a21c9365cd871479b30a23aac507df.png) The red color is a column containing the yellow one which is a row. Once I click the clone button, It shows the scroll bar in the wrong side. ---

These are the blocks I used to test with ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/3/5/35335af83574066a1a793c101f011209ae80823a.png) ---

I did the same. Except that i used count with i from 1 to 10 and put label as join “label” and counter i 🤣 And i put these clones directly in a “scrollable” row… as i said it already. A row that is absolute sized and the only in a blank screen. ---

So, putting a scrolling column works… ![testing](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/3/b/3bcbcc346d21fec7a0472e2810ee2e20e193b2aa.gif) Using a row instead of a column, doesnt work. ![testing2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/4/6/465a02546da4213ce8195c3750095ae5b35fbaf7.gif) ---

Hi I created a project based in the trick in the Thunkable video tutorial and still effective. Here is the link [https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/6153629b190a7402638d78b6](https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/6153629b190a7402638d78b6) Based on [this video](https://youtu.be/XYlOkaDg9Ho) ---

Thank you very much for putting effort in trying to solve my issues everytime 🤗 Already tried myself to use rotateZ axis of a row in a column, but as you see, writings will rotate aswell, and dont stay horizontally as i need it too. It works just fine with some blank, without text blocks items (just like in video). Until [@Thunkable\_Staff](https://community.thunkable.com/groups/thunkable_staff) will try to solve this issue about row`s scroll, just like column scroll (if you can set it to true, it supposed to work without workarounds, right ? 😊), ill just stick to a landscape screen where my table will fit without in need of a horizontal scroll. My latest issue is that trying to retrieve a “computed” width, it takes so much time (few seconds for every item from a variable length list of items ill try to calculate to get the highest value). Its really so much time consuming or is just my phone ? 🤔 ---

I used the same code in my main app, but theres something different there… Ill figure it out. (found a way to wait until labels are dispalyed tho 😊, and not a second more 😊) ---

> [@mimostel](#): > > writings will rotate aswell, This should not be a problem to someone as intelligent as you are. You can easily **rotate the label** in the reverse way and you will have the label displayed properly in the scrolling row. I changed my [sample project](https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/6153629b190a7402638d78b6) to show the labels in the right way. Check and let me know. ---
