I am currently using an image control inside a popup control. I have set the width and height properties of the popup control. When we place a big image inside the image control, the popup control resizes instead of displaying scroll bars. Here is the snippet of the .aspx source code:
<dxpc:ASPxPopupControl ID="popView" runat="server" ClientInstanceName="popView" HeaderText="View Image"
Width="640px" Height="480" Modal="true" ShowSizeGrip="True" AllowResize="true" AllowDragging="True" PopupHorizontalAlign="WindowCenter" PopupVerticalAlign="WindowCenter">
<ContentCollection>
<dxpc:PopupControlContentControl ID="PopupControlContentControl2" runat="server">
<center>
<table >
<tr>
<td style="height:480px; width:640px; vertical-align:middle; text-align:center;">
<dxe:ASPxImage ID="imgSample" ClientInstanceName="imgSample" runat="server">
</dxe:ASPxImage>
</td>
</tr>
<tr style="text-align:center;">
<td align="center">
<dxe:ASPxButton ID="btnRemoveImaeg" runat="server" Text="Remove" OnClick="btnRemoveImage_Click">
<ClientSideEvents Click="function(s, e) {
popView.Hide();
}"></ClientSideEvents>
</dxe:ASPxButton>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>
</dxpc:PopupControlContentControl>
</ContentCollection>
</dxpc:ASPxPopupControl>
We would like the popup to retain its size and to display scrollbars when displaying large images. Is this possible?

Hi Jerome,
Sorry for the late response. This is actually how the ASPxPopupControl is designed. As a way out, try the Nick's suggestions from report Q32140 ("Need help with ASPxPopupControl"). Will this meet your requirements?

P.S. By the way, it seems you're using an older build of our components (according to the report's Version field). Please visit our version info page at http://www.devexpress.com/Support/Versions.xml, to learn about the most recent versions of our products, and obtain instructions on how to update them.
I've read the link you gave me and yes, we are experiencing the same issue and we are asking for the same solution. The problem is I think the question wasn't answered well enough. Is it not possible for the popup control to retain its size and just display scrollbars when the popup's inner controls are larger than its current size? Resizing the inner control is not acceptable for our application.
Hi Jerome,
This is actually how the ASPxPopupControl is currently designed. We aren't planning to change this behavior in the near future. However, this may be done later, since we receive other user reports about this functionality.
For now, we see 2 possible workarounds to this task:
What do you think about this?
