    Default QML Scroll Bar doesn't update when it is at the bottom and window height is resized

    I have a custom scrollbar QML type that I am working on. The problem I'm having is that if the scroll bar is all the way at the bottom of the page and the height of the main application window is increased, the translated contents stay in place and the size of the scroll bar is not updated. After this window resize occurs, clicking on the scroll bar causes the content to snap to its proper place and the scroll bar to snap to its proper size. What changes could be made to the code below so the position of the contents (red blocks) and scroll bar size update while the window height is changing, not afterwards when the scroll bar has been clicked again. To see the issue just open the code below, scroll the blue scroll bar all the way to the bottom, increase the height of the main window (observing the scroll bar size and the content position), and then click on the scroll bar after the resize. Here is my code:

    main.qml

    Qt Code:
    1. import QtQuick 2.12
    2. import QtQuick.Window 2.12
    3. import QtQuick.Layouts 1.12

    12. title: qsTr("Hello World")
    13. color: 'light blue'
    14.  
    15. // container

    Default Re: QML Scroll Bar doesn't update when it is at the bottom and window height is resiz

    Don't know much about QML, but I do see that on line 47 of the first code post, you have something called "Scroll_Bar" while in the second post, line 4 contains something else named "ScrollBar". I don't see where either one of them references the other.
