If you use firebug, can you tell us if the #modx-content div has overflow:auto set to it ?

If so, are you rendering your CMP using renderTo:"your_div" or are you using the layout mgr ?
Maybe your not using ExtJS at all for your CMP ?

Yes, a bug report has been filed: http://bugs.modx.com/issues/4940 marked as critical.

No, I’m not using ExtJS at all... and this is not a good introduction to it. I’m not using the layout manager at all. I’m not even sure what that is, frankly.

Man, this just seems way overcomplicated.

But my mistake, but i agree, it is overcomplicated.

Viewport in Extjs is supposed to be used with ExtJS. So if you’re not, it can work, but it can also cause some unwanted issues...

I suppose that your CMP juste use an echo on the page ?

Any update on this? It’s fairly irksome that a framework that is database agnostic isn’t JS library agnostic... I just want some straight up html in my CMP’s. sad

Can’t agree more.

You content is directly pushed in the modx-content div, or in a children div ?

My CMP content is returned into the modx-content div, but I have a few wrapper divs around my content, so I’ve been able to apply styling there to make it scroll, but it’s a bit wonky.

The modx-content div is in absolute position with an overflow set to auto.
For your CMP, since you have no use for ExtJS, try to add the followinf CSS lines:

#modx-content{
	overflow:normal !important;
}

#your_last_wrapper_div{
	overflow: auto;
}

Can’t test it, but i do think that the fact that js handle some positioning is not playing well with agnostic CMPs.
