> @Glavo I'd be interested in what problem you're running into (maybe before/after description?). Perhaps there is a bug in the fix. It's also possible you inadvertently have been relying on the behavior where content bias is sometimes ignored, which was a bug. All FX containers always respect content bias. In that case the only solution is to modify your layout a bit. Let me know if I can be of help.
We encountered this problem. The content of this page (excluding the title bar) is a `BorderPane`, and the red box is the content of its center, a `FlowPane`.

In OpenJFX 25+9 and earlier, the height of this `FlowPane` was 280 pixels, but since 25+10, its height has grown to 576 pixels, so that the interface layout is broken.

It is not difficult for us to solve this problem. Wrapping this `FlowPane` in a `ScrollPane` will restore its height to normal. However, I still don’t understand the specific reason behind it.
