The problem is that merely adding an FXScrollWindow to the FXGroupBox 
during that second call to build() doesn't mark the layout of the group 
box as "dirty". That is to say, FOX doesn't assume that adding the 
scroll window changed the size of the parent group box (grbox2), and so 
that widget's layout doesn't get recalculated as a result. In this 
case, you need to explicitly mark the group box layout as dirty by 
calling its recalc() method. Try adding the following line at the end 
of build(), after the call to FXScrollWindow#create:

	scrollarea.recalc

and see if you get the result you're after.

Hope this helps,
