Layout issue with Codename One - codenameone

Question

At this moment I'm only testing my app in the simulator (as I'm having issues with "Send iOS Build" mentioned in another thread [Errors with Codename One "Send iOS Build" and "Send Android Build")
I'm experiencing some layout issues where it is not making use of the width and height correctly. The elements are left-aligned and there is unused space on the right side. And I need to scroll up and down instead of having everything fit within the visual area. Please see images.
The code are:
private final void show() {
loginSignupForm = new Form("Company", new BoxLayout(0));
Tabs loginSignupTabs = new Tabs();
Style loginSignupStyle = UIManager.getInstance().getComponentStyle("Tab");
prepareAndAddSignupTab(loginSignupTabs, loginSignupStyle);
prepareAndAddLoginTab(loginSignupTabs, loginSignupStyle);
loginSignupForm.add(loginSignupTabs);
loginSignupForm.show();
}
private void prepareAndAddLoginTab(Tabs loginSignupTabs, Style loginSignupStyle) {
loginID = new TextField();
loginPassword = new TextField();
Button loginButton = getLoginButton();
Component[] loginComponents = {
new Label("Email Address"),
loginID,
new Label("Password"),
loginPassword,
loginButton,
};
Container loginContainer = BoxLayout.encloseY(loginComponents);
FontImage loginIcon = FontImage.createMaterial(FontImage.MATERIAL_QUESTION_ANSWER, loginSignupStyle);
loginSignupTabs.addTab("Login", loginIcon, loginContainer);
}
What do I need to changenter code heree to get the elements to:
1. expand to the maximum width (no free space on the right)
2. fit within the visual area (for top-to-bottom)
Please note that I'm coding the elements because I find the (new) GUI Builder quite a challenge to use.

Firstly, don't pass a constant value as an argument to Layouts, coz the values might change in future Codename One updates and this will be difficult for you to debug. new BoxLayout(0) should be new BoxLayout(BoxLayout.Y_AXIS) or simply BoxLayout.y().
The above is where the problem arose but not the only problem because BoxLayout doesn't recognize 0 as a valid argument as it has only 3 which are X_AXIS = 1, Y_AXIS = 2, and X_AXIS_NO_GROW = 3.
If you change the above to use BoxLayout.Y_AXIS, it will work, but from the screenshot above, that's not the best solution.
In conclusion, change your code to below:
private final void show() {
loginSignupForm = new Form("Company", new BorderLayout());
Tabs loginSignupTabs = new Tabs();
Style loginSignupStyle = UIManager.getInstance().getComponentStyle("Tab");
prepareAndAddSignupTab(loginSignupTabs, loginSignupStyle);
prepareAndAddLoginTab(loginSignupTabs, loginSignupStyle);
loginSignupForm.add(BorderLayout.CENTER, loginSignupTabs);
loginSignupForm.show();
}
