GWT view shrinks with browser resize

I am using GWT with GWT-Ext. I designed a simple panel with table and few buttons. In the browser all looks perfect. When I shrink the size of the browser my whole view also shrinks instead browser should show the vertical and horizontal scrollbars. Is there anything I can do here or this behavior is expected?

This behaviour is dependent on your layout, which is just HTML in the end.

If you're using e.g. FlowPanel then the content will be resized. HorizontalPanel acts the same. On the other hand AbsolutePanel should give you pretty much static positioning.

Does this happen even if you specify a width for your SimplePanel using the setWidth(String width) method?
