  • liquid layout to update container height dynamically?

    Hiya. I’m trying to make a series of stat cards for a miniatures game I play. I’m emulating these, to a certain extent:

    https://www.purplepawn.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/monsterpocalypse-martians-menace-cards.jpg

    the thing is, the right column of each card is for abilities that may change in the future. I plan to have these abilities in separate resource files so i can update an ability once and have it be reflected on all of the ~dozen cards that use it. However, I find that when i stack the abilities in the right column, if I edit the resource enough to change its height, the lower abilities don’t move down; they stay put and intersect with the new lines of the edited section.

    I’m guessing i need to anchor the top of one container to the bottom of another but am not sure if that’s the approach I need, or how to go about doing it.

    any help would be great!
